Using the USB connection

You can now unplug the USB cable.

If a panel telling you that it is not safe to remove the DP-01 appears,
do not “close” or unplug the DP-01. Close all programs and windows
that are accessing the files on the DP-01 and try again

Disconnecting from a Macintosh system

When you are discon-

necting the DP-01 from a Macintosh system (OS 9 or OS X), drag the disk
icon to the Trash, or press Command-E (OS X 10.3 also has a button in the
Finder which allows ejecting removable media). When the icon has disap-
peared from your desktop, you can disconnect the DP-01.

“Open” and “Close”

Make sure that
you have saved

songs, copied all the files you’re
going to transfer to the PC to the
FAT partition, etc. before you
open the DP-01.

Before using the DP-01’s FAT partition, you must “open” the system so that it
can be read by the PC. While the system is open, you cannot perform any
recording or playback etc. or any operations involving the DP-01 hard disk.
