Kawai Concert Performer Series Digital PianoP. 138Formatting a Floppy DiskBefore a floppy disk can be used to save data for the first time, it will need to be formatted. Thissimply means that the disk must be “prepared” to hold data.The Concert Performer can read and write to MS-DOS formatted disks. You can purchase pre-formatted floppy disks from any computer or office supply store. Floppy disks may also be formattedon a PC computer, or the CP can format them itself. There are two types of 3.5” floppy disk in themarket, 2DD (which can hold 720KB of data) or 2HD (which can hold 1,440KB or 1.44MB of data).Both can be used in the exact same fashion with the Concert Performer.• You can always re-format a disk at any time. Keep in mind, though, that every time you format adisk, all data that is currently on it will be erased. Re-formatting is a good way to completelyerase a disk that might have been used previously on a computer, since there may be all sorts ofirrelevant data files left on it otherwise.To format a disk:1) In the Disk menu, press FORMAT (R2). The Disk Format menu will be displayed.2) Insert the floppy disk into the drive.3) Use the L2 or L3 buttons to select the size of disk you are using, 2HD or 2DD.4) Press EXEC (F7) to proceed. The screen prompts you for confirmation.5) Press YES (F7) again to start formatting. Or press NO (F1) to cancel formatting and go back to theprevious menu.• It takes about a minute to format a floppy disk. Once the formatting is complete, the LCD screenreturns to the Disk menu automatically.
