Preinitialize 120MB/Zip disk with DSU
On instruments with a 120MB and Zip drives, preinitialize the disk using DSU software (shipped on a
separate disk). Using DSU will save you hours of waiting when you Initialize Disk. 1.44MB disk users skip
to Initializing Disk.
ATTENTION
LS120 Superdrive or Zip drive must be installed on your PC to run DSU.
Step
1
Insert the 120MB/Zip disk into your PC drive.
2
Run DSU. The dialog box above appears.
3
Click on Drive Letter to specify the drive on your PC (A, B, etc.).
4
Click on Status to see amount of free disk space. Each trend group requires 24MB, so 2 trend
groups require 48MB, 3 groups require 72MB. If your disk does not have enough free space, delete
some files before continuing.
5
When your disk has enough free space, click on Trend Groups to specify the number of Trend
Groups the instrument will store data to (1, 2, or 3).
6
Click on Initialize to prepare the disk for storage. Each trend group takes about two minutes.
7
Exit DSU.
