Viewing Catalogs and Saving Files
Saving a File
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. 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 diskette during the save operation. To
do so could corrupt all data on the diskette.
