5 – After recording—Erasing
TASCAM CD-RW4U 29
NOTE
This operation cannot be undone. If you are going to erase
a disc, make sure that it contains only recordings that you
really want to erase!
If the erase operation has been selected, the
word
ERASE flashes on the display, and
the timer starts counting down a time value
shown on the display.
At the end of the countdown period, the word
Complete appears briefly on the dis-
play, and the display returns to the track/
time display.
Refreshing a disc
If a CD-RW disc has been corrupted at any point (e.g.
power has been cut off in the middle of a finalize
operation, etc.), or has been used in a computer or
another piece of equipment that makes it unreadable,
it is possible to “refresh” the disc to make it usable
again. This is equivalent to formatting a disk on a
computer to prepare it for use. This operation
destroys all data on the disc.
1 With the disc loaded, and the unit in stop
mode, press the
ERASE key (D).
2 Turn the
MULTI DIAL control B or use the
SKIP
keys I until the display shows DISC
REFRESH
.
If you do not want to proceed with the
refresh operation, press any other key (such
as the
STOP key).
3 To refresh the disc, press the
MULTI DIAL
control or press the
ENTER key 8.
NOTE
This operation cannot be undone. If you are going to
refresh a disc, make sure that it contains only recordings
that you really want to erase!
4 If the refresh operation has been selected, the
words
ERASE XX:XX are shown on the
display, and the timer starts counting down
(
XX:XX). The refresh operation takes
between 20 and 40 minutes, depending on the
media being refreshed.
5 At the end of the countdown period, the word
Complete appears briefly on the dis-
play, and the display returns to the track/
time display (of course, there are no tracks,
and the disc is as the start, with the total time
of the disc available for recording).
