Cygnus Operating Manual

2.7.5 Test Mode

This instrument contains a software-controlled test mode which simulates actual
operation. Optionally, time can be compressed so that a long process can be
simulated in one tenth of the time. The purpose of the test mode is to verify basic
operation and to demonstrate typical operation. The rate display during test mode
operation is:

[1]

Crystal fails are ignored in test mode. Crystal switching is disabled. All other relays
and inputs operate normally.

2.7.6 Floppy Disk (Optional)

The floppy disk drive is an optional accessory for the Cygnus. This option allows
storage of all parameter information to the 3.5 inch 1.44 MByte floppy diskette. The
maximum number of files that may be stored onto the floppy disk is 224 for a 1.44
MByte diskette and 112 files when using a 720 KByte diskette

The parameter set may be stored under a new or existing filename and retrieved
from an existing file. A file containing the Cygnus parameter set is referred to as a
configuration file.

Multiple files may be contained on one diskette. Filenames may be eight characters
long. All files must be contained on the root directory. Storage/retrieval from
sub-directories is not allowed.

The instrument supports the writing of filenames using alphanumeric characters
selected using the cursor keys. Characters A through Z and numbers 0 through 9
inclusive are available. The instrument has the ability to display the files contained
on the diskette. A scrolling feature is enabled to view those filenames that cannot
fit on the screen. Error messages include: Disk Full; File Not Found; Disk Write
Protected; Media Error; Disk not Found; File is Read Only.

CAUTION

Do not bend the diskette.

Keep the diskette dry and do not expose the diskette to
temperature extremes.

Do not remove the diskette from the instrument while a
save or retrieve operation is taking place.
