IBASIC program is saved to disk. It can be saved in either binary or
ASCII format.
ASCII Save a program in ASCII format for ease of
transportability. Programs saved in ASCII format
can be read by any HP BASIC computer or
instrument running IBASIC.
bin(ary) Binary format is specific to this family of analyzers
(HP 8712ES and HP 8714ES). A program saved in
