UTL Card Save           

  Slot=1 Bank=1 (TG500 )

Position the cursor at the “Slot=” parameter and select “1” if you want to save to

a card plugged into the DATA 1 slot, or “2” to save to the DATA 2 slot. Next posi-

tion the cursor at the “Bank=” parameter and select “1” or “2”, depending on the

bank you want to save to. Before actually executing the save operation, check the

card status as shown in parantheses in the lower right corner of the display. If the

display shows “(TG500)”, a properly formatted MCD64 is installed and the save

operation can be executed. If the wrong type of card (wrong format) or no card is

installed in the selected slot, however, the card status display will show “(------)” and

no save operation is possible. You will have to use the card format job (4-4: FOR-

MAT, page 236) to format a new memory card or one that has been formatted for use

with a different instrument before the card can be used with the TG500. Also make

sure that the card write protect switch (see MCD64 Memory Card operation manual)

is set to the “OFF” position before attempting to save data to the card.

Press [ENTER] to begin the card save procedure. The following confirmation

display will appear:

UTL Card Save      Sure?

  Slot=1 Bank=1 (TG500 )

Press [+1/YES] to confirm that you want to go ahead with the card save opera-

tion, or press [-1/NO] to cancel.

When the data has been saved, “Completed!” will appear briefly on the display.
