• Send an IRL Clear file command from the host computer:

Specifying the Path for Programs and Data Files

The directory that is current when you open the IRL Desktop becomes the path
for your IRL programs and data files. However, when the current drive is C
or D, the first writable drive on the reader becomes the path.
If you do not want to use the current directory or first writable drive as the
path, you can specify a path for programs and data files. There are several
ways to specify the path:
7-12
3 9
helconital
.$filename
where filename is 0 or any character from A to Z. If you do not include a
filename, all IRL data files (0, A to Z) are deleted.
Caution
When the clear file command is sent from the host without data, all data is
cleared and all files are deleted.
Conseil
Lorsque la commande d'effacement de fichier (clear file) est envoyée de l'hôte
sans préciser les données à effacer, toutes les données sont effacées et tous les
fichiers sont supprimés.
How to Specify the Path
You set the IM_IRLPROG
and/or IM_IRLDATA
environment variables in
your AUTOEXEC.BAT file.
You set the IM_IRLPROG
and/or IM_IRLDATA
environment variables at the
DOS prompt.
You include the path for a
data file in the OPEN
command.
You select the path from the
IRL Desktop.
How Long the Path Remains in Effect
This change remains in effect until you reset the path to
another value. Each time you boot the reader,
AUTOEXEC.BAT sets the path according to the
environment variables.
Note: If you do not set the environment variables in
AUTOEXEC.BAT, the current directory or firstwritable
drive becomes the path when you boot the reader.
This change remains in effect until you reset the path to
another value or boot the reader.
This change remains in effect for the data file until you
modify the OPEN command.
This change remains in effect until you reset the path to
another value or boot the reader or exit from the Desktop.
