6. You will then be prompted to tell the analyzer where on the
destination disk to put the files to be copied.
7. Press Enter if you want the files to go into the main, or root,
directory of the destination disk. Use a keyboard (if connected) or the
front panel knob and the softkeys to enter a subdirectory on the
destination disk before pressing
Files on each disk can be accessed via HP-IB using SCPI commands,
directly from IBASIC, or over a LAN. The table below shows the names
used for each disk. You will notice that when using the file utilities, the
analyzer displays the SCPI name in the disk catalog window and in the
filename entry windows.
The dynamic data disk is an internal FTP directory called "data." For
more information, refer to "Accessing the Analyzer's Dynamic Data
Disk," located in The LAN Interface User's Guide Supplement.
