Working with Memory Cards
Initializing an SRAM memory card
Initializing an SRAM memory card
You can initialize SRAM memory cards in two ways.
• The Automated Method, which is the fastest method to initialize.
Use this method when initializing a memory card before making a
test procedure.
NOTE
The Automated method uses a program stored in HP/Agilent 8922
ROM memory. As a result of running the ROM program, the HP/Agilent
8922 internal RAM memory is erased, including the Agilent 83212D
software and any test procedure not already saved to a memory card.
• The IBASIC Method. Use this method if you have a test procedure
defined but have not yet initialized a memory card. Note that the
IBASIC method is slower than the Automated method, but is the
only way to initialize a memory card without losing any software
currently in the HP/Agilent 8922.
