Procedure

1.

If you are going to save to floppy disk, insert a floppy disk. Be sure that the disk con-
tains no data that you need. (If you think the volume will not fit on a single disk, have
additional disks ready.) If you are saving to an external SCSI disk, be sure that the
SCSI drive is correctly mounted (

p.32), and that a disk is inserted (if applicable).

NOTE:
SCSI drives can be used only if the optional SCSI board (ASIB1 board) is installed.

Press DISK | SAVE to enter this job.

3.

Turn the dial as necessary to select

SAVE VOLUME

, and then press [OK].

▼ The screen displays

Turn the dial as necessary to select the disk (partition) you wish to save to.

To save to floppy disk, select

mounted a SCSI drive.)

To save to a SCSI disk, select

DRIVE=SCSI

(if the disk is unpartitioned) or

x (where x is the partition number).

Subsequent operation then depends on whether you are saving to floppy disk or SCSI
disk, as follows.

5.

Press [OK].
▼ Operation now depends on whether you have placed a valid disk in the drive, as

follows.

If the disk in the drive is empty and has a valid MS-DOS format, the screen dis-
plays

VOLUME=FD VOLUM

. This is the volume name that is automatically as-

signed to floppy disks. To proceed with the save, simply press [OK]. The SU700
begins saving as described in step 6 below.

If the disk in the drive has a valid format but contains one or more files, the screen
displays

OK TO CLEAR ALL?

, warning you that the save operation will overwrite

all data in the disk. If you wish to proceed, press [OK]. The SU700 will display

EX-

message,

press [CANCEL] once (the screen displays

), then change the disk

and press [OK], and proceed again from the top of step 5. (Or else press [CANCEL]
twice to abort the job.)
