MicroLogix 1000 and PLC-500 A.I. Series Software Reference
B-vi
The system checks your hard disk for errors, and reports a number of details about your
system. The last line of the CHKDSK report is the number of bytes free.
Note If CHKDSK finds errors on your hard disk, it will ask you if you want to “Convert lost
chains to files.” Answering Yes to this prompt will only perform calculations. To
correct the errors, rerun the CHKDSK command with the /f parameter. Type
CHKDSK /f and answer yes to the prompt. For more information on the CHKDSK
command, please consult your DOS manual.
If the number of bytes free is less than 400,000, then you will need to free some
memory.
Freeing Base RAM
A number of methods are available to make more base RAM available for
PLC-500 A.I.:
•
Remove menuing software. Menuing software allows you to run software
applications by selecting them from a menu, instead of typing the program name.
Unfortunately, most menuing software takes up too much RAM. If you encounter
memory errors when you run PLC-500 A.I. by selecting it from a menu:
1. Exit to DOS. A prompt will be displayed. It should look something like this:
C:\>
Some menuing software has a DOS Shell option that gives you a DOS prompt
but leaves the menu in RAM. This will not help you. You need to exit the
menu.
2. Change directory to the directory where the PLC-500 A.I. software is installed,
usually C:\SLC500. For example, type: CD \SLC500 [Enter] .
