Operating instructions

HARD DISK SUPPLEMENT

3. After all errors have been noted, press ENTER. The display now says:

Write Error Log to

Hard Disk? (Y/N)

If you’re next operation is to format the Hard Disk, which happens 90% of the time, press

NO. If the Hard Disk is already formatted, press YES to update the existing error log. In

either case, you next have the option to write the error log to floppy disk when the

display says...

Write Err Log to

Floppy? (Y/N)

Make sure that your Hard Disk software floppy is in Drive 1, and then press YES. After

formatting the Hard Disk, this software can then be loaded into the Hard Disk to create

an up-to-date error log.

SPECIAL 18 - AUTO HARD DISK BACKUP

Enter the Special module and key in 18 to save everything on the Hard Disk to floppies.

All you have to do is get your floppies ready, read the display, and follow instructions.

(Someday, robots will do this type of thing...).

SPECIAL 17 - COPY HARD DISK SOFTWARE

This function is available primarily for updating the Hard Disk operating system as

updates become available.

1. Enter the Special module and key in 17 with the keypad. The display says:

Copy will Erase

Memory OK? Y/N

If you press YES and carry on with the software writing process.

BE VERY CAREFUL

Triple check that the software being loaded on to the Hard Disk is the proper Hard Disk

software. If you accidentally write non-Hard Disk software on to the Hard Disk, it will get

amnesia and not even remember that it’s a Hard Disk.
