Access Keys:
Softkey in the programs menu. This key is used to select how the
IBASIC program is saved to disk. It can be saved in either binary or
ASCII format.
ASCII
Save a program in ASCII format for ease of
transportability. Programs saved in ASCII format
can be read by any HP BASIC computer or
instrument running IBASIC.
bin(ary)
Binary format is specific to this family of analyzers
(HP 8712ES and HP 8714ES). A program saved in
binary format is not readable by an IBASIC
computer or other instruments running IBASIC.
Binary format, however, is required if you are going
to use the LOADSUB keyword.
See the Instrument BASIC User's Handbook Supplement for more
information on saving programs.
Access Keys:
Softkey in the
