Memory Configuration
This feature allows the user to allocate available RAM between the Execution Program and RAM disk area,
and can only be done when there is no data stored in RAM.
The RAM memory in the BCP-760 is divided into three sections:
♦
System Variable
About 29KB of RAM memory is reserved for BCP-760 parameters.
♦
RAM Disk Area
Area used to store programs and data files, similar to a physical disk of a PC.
♦
Program Execution
Area where the applications and data are loaded, similar to the main
Area
memory in a PC.
To reallocate memory, go to the Supervisor Mode screen and press 3 (3.M_SIZE) to setup the Execution
Program Area size, key in the new memory size then press [ENT].
You can allocate available RAM between the Execution Program and RAM Disk area. The size of RAM Disk
will decrease when you increase the size of the Execution Program area, and vice versa.
The second line in the EXEC MENU shows Min and Max number of kilobytes that can be allocated to the
Execution Area.

FormBuilder Application Program
FormBuilder is a built-in application program that allows users to create a data entry application by specifying
field prompt, field length, data type, input method and delimiter, etc. without writing a program and loading it
(download or manually) to the BCP-760.
Enable the FormBuilder application by selecting 4 (4.FORM) in the Supervisor mode menu. When
FormBuilder is enabled, the BCP-760 will first ask the user to specify data fields in four categories including
field prompt, data length, and data type and device type. After defining all data fields, the user must [CMD]
then [Alpha] key to end the setup of the data field.
