CD-R/RW MASTER RECORDER CR500 (Preparation before using the CR500)
1) Press the [OPEN/CLOSE] key to open the
disc tray.
2) Set an unformatted CD-R/RW disc and press
the [OPEN/CLOSE] key to close the disc tray.
The unit recognizes that the disc is blank
and enters the "Format" screen of the
"DISK UTILITY" menu in the MENU mode.
3) Use the [MENU] dial to highlight "Vol.Label"
at the top and press the [ENTER/YES] key.
The rightmost digit of the current volume
label flashes and you can now edit the
label.
On this screen, you can format the disc
after setting the disc volume label and
format type.
We recommend to set the volume label
because it can be used as the default file
name when making recording to a BWF
formatted disc.
If you do not edit the volume label, skip
the next three steps and go to step 6.

<Note>:
The recordable time of a BWF formatted disc
decreases not only by making recording but also by
closing the disc (see page 46) and by rewriting the file
system data (see page 88).
<Note>:
With a CD-DA disc, the vol-
ume label setting is ineffective and
is not stored.
