Any type of file can be accessed from this screen, either through an IBASIC program
or the IBASIC command line.
•

fields.
Only procedure files shipped with Agilent Technologies 83217 software or procedure
files created using the TESTS (Save/Delete Procedure) screen of the TESTS Sub-
system can be accessed using these fields. When created, procedure file names are pre-
fixed with a lower case .PRC file extension (FM_TEST.PRC).
A corresponding code file - prefixed with .PGM (FM_TEST.PGM must reside on the
same media for the procedure to work. Refer to the TESTS Screen
