To turn on or off the confirm delete message, toggle the side menu Confirm
Delete button.

To turn on or off the file overwrite lock, toggle the side menu Overwrite Lock
button.
When overwrite lock is on, the oscilloscope will not permit you to write over an
existing file of the same name. An important reason to allow overwriting is to let
you write files using a target file name that contains wild card characters (“?”).
This means the oscilloscope creates sequential files whose names are similar
except for the sequential numbers that go in the real name in the place of the
question marks.
To format a 720 Kbyte or 1.44 Mbyte disk, turn the general purpose knob until it

side menu Format button.

Printing a Hardcopy
The TDS Oscilloscope can provide you with hardcopies of its display. To obtain
a hardcopy, you need to know how to configure the communication and
hardcopy parameters of the oscilloscope, how to connect it to one of the many
hardcopy devices it supports, and how to print the hardcopy. This subsection
describes how to do these tasks and how to save a hardcopy to a floppy disk.
