Comments
•
The RAM disc segment will only be created after the System Instrument
has been re-booted (cycle power or execute DIAG:BOOT).
•
Based on the size specified, DIAG:RDIS:CRE rounds the size up to an
even value.
•
Using all of the available RAM (MAX) for the disc volume segment will
limit some functions such as IBASIC program space, instrument reading
storage space, and full functionality of the Display Terminal Interface.
