COPY — Making a Backup Copy of a Disk

The COPY function lets you duplicate the contents of one entire disk (the source disk) on another

disk (the destination disk). It is a good practice to regularly back up your valuable data in this

way.

Be Careful!

This procedure uses the sequencer memory to temporarily hold the information while copying it

between disks. Anything in the sequencer memory before you start will be erased. Save any

important sequencer data before copying a disk.

To Make a Backup Copy of a Disk:

• Slide the plastic write-protect tab on the source disk — the original — so that the disk is write

protected (you can see through the hole). This is an extra precaution to safeguard the data.

• Press Storage and then select DISK.

• Press COPY. The display shows SEQUENCER DATA WILL BE ERASED.

• Press *YES* (or press *NO* to cancel and save the data before proceeding). The display shows:

• Insert the destination disk (the copy) and press *OK*. If the destination disk is not formatted,

the TS-10 will format it before proceeding.

• After a moment, the TS-10 will ask INSERT SOURCE DISK. Insert the write-protected source

disk (the original) and press *OK*.

• The TS-10 will load the data from the source disk into the sequencer memory, and then save it

to the destination disk, asking you to insert the appropriate disks as it needs them. Each time,

insert the proper disk and press *OK*. (Note that you can press *QUIT* at any time to abort

the procedure.)

• The Copy disk procedure requires about three disk swaps with the standard TS-10 memory

configuration.

• Once the Copy procedure is successfully done, the display will read DISK COMMAND

COMPLETED, and then return to the Storage page.

DISK COPY Error messages:

• DISK WRITE-PROTECTED — A write-protected disk (window open) was inserted when

INSERT DESTINATION DISK was displayed. The Destination Disk must have the Write-

protect window closed.

• DISK IS NOT SOURCE DISK or DISK IS NOT DESTINATION DISK — You put the wrong

disk in the drive when prompted for a certain disk. This is not fatal; it doesn’t abort the Copy

procedure. Just insert the proper disk and proceed.
