MMEMory
MMEMory:INITialize
Formats the specified disk.
Command Syntax:
[<format_option>], [<interleave_factor>]
<MSINAME> ::= '<disk>'
<disk> ::= NVRAM:|RAM:|INT:|EXT[,<select_code>[,<unit_number>]]:
<select_code> ::= a real number (NRf data)
<unit_number> ::= a real number (NRf data)
<format_option> ::= <number>
<number> ::= a real number (NRf data)
<interleave_factor> ::= <number>
<number> ::= a real number (NRf data)
Example Statements:
Attribute Summary:
Description:
The select code and unit number specifiers are valid only with the EXT: disk specifier.
The first <number> specifies the format option. You can specify the format option for the internal disk
(INT:) and an external disk (EXT:). In NVRAM, the format option is ignored. In RAM the memory size
is already specified in bytes. Use the <format_option> field to specify memory size in bytes.
The <number> you enter after a floppy disk specifier is actually an encoded value that determines the
disk's formatted capacity in kilobytes. See table 15-1.
The second <number> is the interleave factor. The default value is 0.
Note
When accessing the external mass storage device (EXT:); the active controller on the
GPIB must temporarily pass control to the analyzer. After the command has been
executed, the analyzer must pass control back. See the GPIB Programmer's Guide for
more information on passing control.
