When the above display is on
your screen you have various
options. The two you will
probably use most are formatting
and copying a disk, and loading
user software. Please continue
reading below:
First time procedure:
Making a
copy
of your master
diskette is recommended the very
first time you use the machine.
Store your clean version of the
master and work only with the
copy. In case of diskette prob
lems, you will always have a
good master diskette available.
The procedure for copying and
formatting new diskettes are
explained in the next section.
Working with user software:
User software or application
software refers to programs
written to solve specific problems
in a particular area, such as busi
ness, medical or legal.
They run under the operating
system CP/M-86, which you have
already loaded using the system
diskette. The system diskette
information must, therefore,
always be loaded
before
you
work with your particular software
package. This can be done one
of two ways.
Method 1:
• Load the system diskette as in
the procedure described above.
• Remove the system diskette
and insert the user (applica
tion) software into the same
drive.
• Clear with the [RETURN] key
and proceed according to
instructions in the User Manual
supplied with the software
package.
Method 2:
• Load the system diskette in
Drive A as previously outlined.
• Insert the user (application)
diskette into Drive B.
• Type in B:
• Clear with the [RETURN] key
and proceed according to
instructions in the User Manual
supplied with the software
package.
NOTE:
All further operation is then
based on the appropriate manuals
supplied with your user (applica
tion) software.
