a
field
site,
dump the
residual data before
removing
the tape.
To dump the residual data
enter the
*8
Mode,
advance directly
to window
3
and
initiate a
dump. Because
data are
written
to tape
in fixed
blocks
of 512locations,
the
TPTR may be in the
middle
of an output
array.
Entering
a
location
for
the TPTR, even
the location originally
displayed, will
result in the
TPTR
being
moved to
the
first
output array
stafi
marker
following
the
location
entered.
Thus, the
portion
of the array
following
the originalTPTR
location
would
not be
written
to tape.
To use
the
*8
Mode to transfer all data
from
Final
Storage
to tape, enter
a start
of
dump
location number which
is 1
greater
than
the end
of
dump
location,
advance
to ready
to
dump
(03:)
and
key any
number and A. Data transfer
occurs
immediately
and
is completed when the
display
shows
"08:"
and the current DSP
location.
To dump
a
portion
of the data
in
Final Storage,
key in
the
start and
end locations before
initiating
the
dump.
The locations
can
be
determined
by
viewing the
contents
of
Final
Storage in
the
*7
Mode.
By saving
the current
location
of the DSP and
using
it
for the starting
location
on the
next visit to the site, only the
data
stored
between
visits are transferred
to
tape.
NOTE:
A
tape dump
can be
aborted
by
keying #.
However,
since
it
cannot
be
aborted
in the
middle of a 512
data
point
block, up to 5 seconds
may
elapse
before
the tape stops.
