Saving a File

5.Enter a filename by pressing Name. The Alpha Editor appears. For this example you will name the file, “TEST1”. (The numeric keypad is also available for the filename.) Note that the file extension is always set by the system and for this file type the extension is TRC. You must now press the Enter (hardkey) to get back to the Save menu.

NOTE

You need to use a filename that does not already exist in the current

 

directory. The filename is limited to eight characters, alpha (A-Z) or numeric

 

(0-9) in any combination. The analyzer will not allow you to overwrite an

 

existing file. If you select a filename that already exists, the status bar will

 

display the message: File already exists. If you do not choose a filename,

 

the analyzer will automatically generate a name based on the type of file you

 

are saving (Setup: SETUP, State: STATE, Trace: TRACE, Limits: LIMIT,

 

Corrections: COREC, Screen: SCREN). It also generates a three digit integer

 

(starting at 000 and extending through 999, remembering the previously

 

saved value through a power cycle) which it adds to the name, for example:

 

TRACE056.TRC. Also note that this three digit integer increments upon each

 

attempted save until a unique filename is created, without regard to the

 

success of the save.

 

 

6.The destination for the saved file is shown in the Path: field. In this example, you will

select the path as C:\START\. If the correct location is not listed in the Path: field, change directories as follows:

a.Press Dir Up or Dir Select and use the step keys or knob, to highlight the desired destination directory.

b.Press Dir Select and confirm your choice displayed in the Path: field.

7.Press Save Now or Save (hardkey) to save the file to the C:\Start\ location. The message Saving Now is displayed during this operation. For this example, the status line displays: C:\START\TEST1.TRC file saved.

NOTE

When saving to drive (A:), never remove the floppy disk during the save

 

operation. To do so could corrupt all data on the floppy disk.
