APPENDIX A. CR10 *9 MODE -- STORAGE MODULE COMMANDS
The CR10 *9 Mode is used to issue commands
to the Storage Module using the CR10KD
keyboard/display or a terminal/computer.
These "commands" are analogous in many
respects to the datalogger functional (*) Modes.
For example, command 7 is used to review
stored data, and 8 is used to transfer data
between two Storage Modules connected to a
CR10.
The key sequences for the *9 commands have
a generalized format. Using Command #1 as
an example:

After about 1 minute with the SM192 or 4
minutes with the SM716, the number of good
RAM chips will be displayed:
01:06
6 RAM chips in SM192
01:22
22 RAM chips in SM716
Most commands have at least one response.
Advance through the responses and return to
9X:00 (ready to accept another *9 command) by
keying "A". Exit the *9 Mode by keying "*" and
the character of the mode you want to switch to
("*0" to go to the log mode).
