Disk
The
following
procedures
show
you how
to store
plot les
on a
LIF formatted
disk. A
naming
convention
is
used
so
you
can
later run
an HP
BASIC
program on
an external
controller that
will
output
the
les
to
the
following peripherals:
a
plotter
with
auto-feed
capability
,
such
as
the HP
7550B
an
HP-GL/2
compatible
printer
, such
as the
LaserJet 4
series (monochrome)
or
the
DeskJet
1200C
or
DeskJet
1600C
(color)
The
program
is
contained
on
the
\Example Programs
Disk" that
is provided
with
the
HP
8753D
Network
Analyzer
Programmer's
Guide
.The
le naming
convention allows
the
program
to
initiate
the
following:
to
initialize
the printer
for HP-GL/2
at the
beginning of
a
page
to
plot
multiple plot
les on
the same
page
to
send
a page
eject (form
feed) to
the hardcopy
device
,
when
all
plots
to
the
same
page
have
been
completed
The
plot
le
name
is
made
up of
four
parts
,
the
rst
three
are
generated
automatically
by
the
analyzer
whenever
a
plot
is
requested.
The
two
digit
sequence
number
is
incremented
by
one
each
time
a
le
with
a
default
name
is
added
to
the
directory
.
