File System
Reference
The labelling menu should appear. Turn the general purpose knob or use the
main-menu arrow keys to select each letter. Press Enter Char from the main
menu to enter each letter. When you have entered the name, press the side
menu OK Accept item. (See Figure 3-30)
Confirm Delete
To turn on or off the confirm delete message, toggle the side menu Confirm
Delete button.
When the confirm delete option is OFF, the digitizing oscilloscope can im-
mediately delete files or directories. When the confirm option is ON, the
digitizing oscilloscope warns you before it deletes files and gives you a
chance to reconsider
Overwrite Lock
To turn on or off the file overwrite lock, toggle the side menu Overwrite Lock
button.
When overwrite lock is on, the digitizing oscilloscope will not permit you to
write over an existing file of the same name. An important reason to allow
overwriting is to let you write files using a target file name that contains wild
card characters (“?”). This means the digitizing oscilloscope creates sequen-
tial files whose names are similar except for the sequential numbers that go in
the real name in the place of the question marks.
Format
To format a 720 Kbyte or 1.44 Mbyte disk, turn the general purpose knob until
it scrolls the cursor over the name of the drive to format in. (fd0:) Then, press
the side menu Format button.
