Saving and Loading Setting Parameters
Explanation
Auto naming function: AutoFile
If “AutoFile” has been set to “ON”, a file name No. (3 digits, starting from “001”) will be
assigned to the data automatically when the data is saved. It is possible to insert a common
file name (up to five characters) before the assigned file name No. by specifying the file
name using “FileName”.
Setting parameters which can be saved
Settings made using the soft key menu and rotary knob, as well as the START/STOP state
and the channel’s ON/OFF state are saved. If a zone waveform has been registered in GO/
NO-GO and the following settings have been made, the zone waveform will also be saved.
Mode
: ON
Type
: ZONE
About saved setting parameters
When setting parameters are saved, the extension “SET” is automatically added, the
“DL_SETUP” directory is created automatically, and the data is saved into this directory.
Data size
Approximately 10 K bytes are used for each set of setting parameters. However, if GO/NO-
GO zone waveforms are included, approximately 4 K bytes extra are required for each zone
waveform.
Checking the free space on a medium
Refer to page 13-3 for a description of this procedure.
Entering a file name
The following points must be kept in mind when entering a file name.
• A file name must always be specified;
• Up to eight characters can be entered.
• All the characters on the keyboard can be used. However, the following file names cannot
be used due to MS-DOS restrictions;
AUX, CON, PRN, NUL, CLOCK
• The same name cannot be assigned to different data files of the same data type.
(Overwrite inhibit).
Points to note when saving/loading setting parameters
• Setting parameters can be saved even if acquisition is in progress (i.e. while the START
indicator is lit).
• Once the loaded setting parameters have been canceled, the original setting parameters
cannot be restored.
• If the extension of the setting parameter file is changed using a personal computer, it will
be impossible to load the data.
CAUTION
Never turn OFF the SCSI device or remove the disk (media) such as a MO or a
PD while the access indicator of the SCSI device is lit. Otherwise, damage to
the SCSI device or the disk may result.
