DVCPRO Upgrade Installation

Updating an Emergency Repair Disk

Whenever you upgrade your software or change your system configuration, Grass
Valley Group strongly recommends that you update the emergency repair disk
shipped with your Profile system. This will allow you to restore system
configuration in the event the operating system has a major problem.

To update your emergency repair disk, you need the 3.5-inch floppy disk labeled
Emergency Repair Disk that was shipped with your Profile system, or any blank
3.5-inch floppy disk properly labeled.

NOTE: The emergency repair disk is Profile system specific. Make sure that
the emergency repair disk is clearly marked with the unit’s serial number.

To update the Emergency Repair Disk:

1. From the Start menu, choose the

RUN

command.

2. Enter

rdisk /s

in the Run dialog box, then press the Enter key or click

OK

. The

Saving Configuration progress bar appears.

3. When the Setup dialog box appears, click

Yes

to create an emergency repair

disk.

4. Insert your existing emergency repair disk or a blank 3.5-inch floppy disk in

the Profile system floppy drive and click

OK

. The Formatting Disk progress

bar appears.

5. When the operation is complete, remove the emergency repair disk from the

Profile system and store it in a safe location.

This completes the DVCPRO upgrade installation procedure.
