Memory Clear: 2MCn... MC memory clear
Clear the results from memory n. It is possible to specify more than one memory, by
separating the memory numbers with commas. For example: MC0,1,2,3,4,5 will clear
all memories.
Note for advanced users: Strictly, this command only clears the segment lists, as read by
the R? command, and does not actually clear the results from memory, so it is possible to
still read them. This can be confusing if a badly written program keeps showing the same
results when in fact the sequence is not being received at all, and the old results are being
left untouched. However, since it is recommended that all programs always check the
segment list to find which results are available this is largely irrelevant. The LA100
itself, and the Lindos Support software behave correctly, and will not access results for a
segment which is not in the segment list.
Memory Recall: 2MRn
MR memory recall
Recall results from specified memory to memory 0, the working memory. This is
normally done in order to read the contents of a memory other than memory 0. Note that
the original results in memory 0 will be overwritten, and this can be avoided by using the
MX command instead.
Memory Store: 2MSn...
MS Memory store
Store results from memory 0, in memory n. The results will be copied and the results will
still remain in memory 0 after this command. Note that multiple memory numbers can be
specified to store the results in more than one memory, although this is of limited use.
For example: 2MS1,2 will stores the results from memory 0 in memories 1 and 2.
Memory Exchange: 2MXn...
MX memory exchange
The results in memory 0 are swapped with the results in memory n. If several memory
numbers are given, then each memory will be exchanged with memory 0 in turn. For
example: MX2,4,2 will exchange memories 2 and 4, leaving memory 0 unchanged,
while MX1,2,3 will rotate memories 0 to 1, 1 to 2, 2 to 3, and 3 to 0.
9.20 Using the Smart Sequence Modes Test tape mode under computer control
The smart sequences modes, described in chapter 6, for working with external sweep
generators, test tapes and discs can be used from remote mode, although the procedure is
slightly more complicated than with most commands: The frequency sweep or test tape
measurement is started using the SM command, but this also restores the unit to manual
keyboard operation, so it is necessary to use the usual procedure to enter remote mode
before sending any further commands. (It was necessary to implement this feature in this
way because the LA102 cannot receive serial input while performing the high-speed
sampling needed for these measurements). The results are normally interpolated using
the
2IN command before reading them with the SR? command.
