Default File System

The Test Set’s default file system is the Logical Interchange Form at (LIF) System.
The LIF file system is used by Instrument B A SIC on the HP® 9000 Series 200/
300 Workstations. See “LIF File Naming Conventions” on page 334 for further
information on the LIF file system. This implies that the Test Set expect a LIF
formatted media for operations as shown in Table 37, “Stored Program Code File
Types,” on page 338. The Test Set’s file system supports both LIF and DOS. The
media format (DOS or LIF) is determined automatically by the Test Set’s file
system when the mass storage device is first accessed and the appropriate format
is used from then on for mass storage operations.
