Before you use the VS8F-3

To use VS8F-3 in a VS series recorder, the system program version of the V Studio

must be compatible with the VS8F-3.

Please check the system program version of your

VS series recorder before installing the VS8F-3. If you find the version is not compatible

with the VS8F-3, please update the software using the SETUP DISC contained in this

package. The update should be executed once prior to the installation of the VS8F-3. If you

find the system program version is compatible with the VS8F-3, the update is not

necessary.

On this chapter, the notes and cautions regarding installation of VS8F-3 are stated. Please

read carefully and install the board correctly.

Checking the system version of your VS series

On the VS-2480/2480CD/2400CD, power up your VS series device while holding down

[CH EDIT 1] + [TRACK STATUS 1]. On the VS-2000, power up your VS-2000 while

holding down [HARMONY] + [TRACK/STATUS 1].

Continue holding down these buttons until “Version Information” appears in the display.

Checking the system version of your VS series device.

If the version is lower than the version numbers given below, you must update the system

of your VS series device. Update the system as described below.

Backing up your projects

To ensure the safety of your data, we recommend that you back up the projects saved on

your hard disk to other media, and then initialize your hard disk before updating the

system program. You can restore the backed-up projects to your internal hard disk using

the project RECOVER command.

Back up projects (performance data) saved on the hard disk to CD-R/RW discs. As

described in the owner's manual, back up all projects that you want to keep. When doing

so, back up not only the projects in the current drive (partition), but also any projects that

are saved in other partitions.

Initialize the hard disk (Format Drive). Projects saved on the hard disk will be completely

erased, and the disk will be free of data. Initialize the hard disk as described in the

owner's manual of your VS series device.

When you execute the Format Drive (Make Partition) command, all projects saved on

the hard disk will be erased. It will not be possible to use the Undo function to

recover the erased projects. If you accidentally erase a project you wanted to keep,

there is no way to recover the project. Roland Corporation can assume no

responsibility whatsoever concerning the recovery of any lost content. Before you

execute the Format Drive (Make Partition) command, you must back up (Project

Backup) any project you want to keep.

Perform the Shutdown procedure (Owner’s Manual of V Studio “Turning Off the

Power”) and turn off the power of all equipment connected to the V Studio device.

When starting up in Step 1,

you must continue holding

down the buttons until the

lowest line of the screen

shows “Boot Condition:

System Information.”

The explanations in this

manual include

illustrations that depict

what should typically be

shown by the display.

Note, however, that your

unit may use a newer,

enhanced version of the

system (e.g., including

newer features), so what

you actually see in the

display may not always

match what appears in the

manual.

• VS-2480/2480CD: Version 2.50 or later

• VS-2400CD: Version 1.50 or later

• VS-2000: Version 1.50 or later

Version number

of the current system

appears here.

“Format Drive” may be

described as “Make

Partition” in the owner's

manual if you purchased

version 1.xx of

VS-2480/2480CD. The

name of a function may

vary according to changes

in specifications, but this

will make no difference in

its operation.
