Once a blank CD is inserted into the drive and the tray is closed, the unit will scan the disc to verify 
that a recordable disc is present. Once the disc has been verified as a recordable CD-R and its length 
has been determined, the MasterLink will verify that the playlist will fit on the CD-R that you have 
inserted. If the playlist is too large to fit on the CD, the display will prompt with a "Playlist 
exceeds disc at Track xx
" message (where xx is the Track number at which the playlist became 
too large), and abort the CD creation process. If the playlist checks out, the recording process will 
begin. Please see Section 6.3 for details of the CD recording process.

The Playlist Restore function is complementary to the Playlist Backup function; it reads Playlists saved 
to CD and restores them to the hard drive, and restores all DSP settings and track timing information. 
 
To begin a Playlist Restore, press the UTILITY button repeatedly until Utility Page 4 is displayed, as 
shown in Figure 8.4.1.

Pressing the DOWN/NO button in this page will have no effect. Pressing the UP/YES button will 
prompt you with an "Are you sure? Y/N" message. Pressing DOWN/NO at that point will cancel 
the Playlist Backup operation. Pressing UP/YES at the prompt will begin the restore process. 
 
If there is no backup disc in the CD drive, the display will prompt you for one, as shown in Figure 
8.4.2.

Backup Disc Prompt Screen 
 
Once a disc is inserted, it will be scanned to determine if it is indeed a valid backup disc. If it is not a 
valid backup disc the disc will be ejected and you will once again be prompted to insert a disc. 
 
Once the MasterLink has identified the disc as a valid backup disc, the backed-up Playlist will be 
restored to the currently selected Playlist. If the currently selected playlist is not empty, a prompt will 
be displayed, as shown in Figure 8.4.3.
