Catalog On/Off
This key toggles the file catalog display screen on and
off. The file catalog display lists all files currently in the
root directory. A sample catalog screen is shown below.
The first file will be highlighted and the file name will
appear in the File Name field. Use the knob to scroll
through the directory. The highlighted file name will be
copied into the File Name field. If the Save Data or Save
ASCII key is now pressed, the data will be saved under
an existing file name and the previous version of that file
will be lost. To create a new file name, use the File
Name key.
Directory entries made by the SR850 have a name,
extension and a type shown in the catalog display. Files
with type SET are settings, type TRC are trace data and
type ASC are ascii files. The file type is not an extension
but is information stored in the directory on the disk.
Only files created by the SR850 have a type. Files creat-
ed and saved on a DOS computer will not have a type
displayed. The file type is not necessary, it is only an aid
to identifying files.
Return
The Return key will return to the main Disk menu. Return
also removes the catalog display screen and restores
the displays.
