Delta Electronics SS1-UM-1.05 Re-installing the SunData application icon, Flashcards reformatting

To copy to another subdirectory, you must add that information to the filename you choose. If you only put a subdirectory name in the filename field, then the Workabout will use the original filename, but with the new subdirectory. A subdirectory name always starts and ends with “\”, for example \SUN\. If you are in any doubt about what is happening, include the complete subdirectory path and filename (but not the drive) in the filename field.

Re-installing the SunData application icon

If the Psion Logo Start-up screen (see previous page) has been accessed, the SunData application may not be automatically re-installed on returning to the Psion System screen, and the SunData icon will no longer be shown.

Re-installing SunData is quite simple. From the Psion system screen:

Press Menu, Disk, Directory, Enter and make sure that the files SunData.app and Sys$8087.ldd are present in the \SUN\ directory on the Internal Disk. Press On/Esc to return to the System screen.

Press Menu, Apps, Install, Enter, Tab, then move to \SUN\ and press Enter, then select SunData.app and press Enter.

You will now see the Install dialog box with Filename SunData.app specified.

Check that Disk is specified as Internal. The Position of the icon in the System screen can be specified too. When all the settings in the dialog box are

satisfactory, press Enter to accept them.

The Sundata icon should now be present in the System screen.

The identical process can be used subsequently for installing an upgraded version of the SunData.app program if one is issued.

Deleting unwanted Workabout files

You can delete files from the either the internal memory or the SSDs of the Workabout using its own file handling procedures as follows:

On the Workabout, exit from SunData (if necessary) by pressing +X.

In the System Screen, press Menu, Disk, Directory, Enter.

Press ←

or → to select Disk [A] (or whichever Disk your file is on).

Press ↑

or ↓ to highlight the filename of the file you want to delete.

Press Menu, Delete file, Enter, then respond to the confirmatory dialogue box.

You will find that no extra space is created on your SSD by deleting the files. The only way to liberate space on the SSD is to re-format it after removing all valuable files from it.

Flashcards - reformatting

The Flashcard (SSD) medium (unlike the Workabout internal memory) is such a secure form of data storage that the only way to make it rewriteable is to reformat it. If your Flashcard drive directory shows much less free space than the you would expect from the difference between 256K (the full amount) and the files shown on it, then you may want to reformat it. Check this with:

Menu, Disk, Directory, Enter, then select the drive with ← or →

Reformatting will destroy any files left on the Flashcard. Make sure you have already transferred all valuable data files to a PC using SunData's file transfer procedure.
