Listing File Names (CAT)
Here follows how to list file names saved in the storage unit (the intended disk you save a
file in)
Displaying a list of file names on the screen
Step 1. Since the list of file names is output on the BASIC area of the 4294A's LCD screen, you
need to reserve the BASIC area before outputting the list. For the procedure,
“Reserving an
Area for BASIC on the Screen” on page 139.
Step 2. Carry out the following key operation on the front panel, then press the [×1] key. The file
names will be listed.
[System] - IBASIC - more 1/3 - CAT
Or type CAT on the keyboard, then press the [Enter] key.
Outputting a list of file names to the printer
NOTE Check that the printer is connected to the 4294A.
Step 1. Type PRINTER IS PRT;WIDTH 80 on the keyboard, then press the [Enter] key to route
the output to the printer.
Step 2. Further, type CAT on the keyboard, and press the [Enter] key. Then the list of file names
will be output to the printer.
Step 3. Type PRINTER IS CRT on the keyboard, then press the [Enter] key to switch the output
destination back to the 4294A's LCD screen.
