Data Storage Messages Color Description (shown low to high priority)
UPDATING DISK Yellow Instrument is flushing all buffered data to the disk.
CHECKING DISK Yellow Whenever the front panel has been opened and closed, the
instrument checks that a properly formatted disk is installed and
ready to receive data.
INITIALIZING Yellow Initialization is in progress.
DS INIT FAILED Yellow Initialization failed. Possible reasons: disk has not been formatted, is
write-protected, or is defective.
STORAGE FULL Yellow Less than 5 minutes of space remains in the internal buffer. Data is
accumulating in the internal buffer (temporary storage) because it is
unable to store the data on the floppy disk. Possible reasons include:
• Disk is full and storage is programmed as non-rollover.
• There is no disk in the drive.
• The disk is write-protected.
• The operator is in the process of retrieving stored data from the
disk.
• The disk is “not current” (see DSK NOT CURRENT below).
• The front bezel is open.
The message will disappear when the condition is corrected, or if data
storage is disabled (turned off).
DISK FULL Yellow No more space is available on one or more of the files on the floppy
disk for storage of data as programmed. This message will appear
only if at least one partition on the disk is programmed for non-
rollover operation. The message will disappear when a new disk is
initialized, or if data storage is disabled (turned off).
DISK WARNING Yellow Floppy disk is not full but available space on one or more disk files
has reached the programmed warning limit. The message will
disappear when a new disk is initialized, or if data storage is disabled
(turned off).
BEZEL OPEN Yellow Instrument front panel is open or is not closed securely.
DISK ERROR Yellow The instrument is attempting to store data but the disk is either not
properly formatted or is faulty. The message disappears when the
disk is formatted or replaced, or if data storage is disabled (turned
off).
DSK NOT CURRENT Yellow When a disk is initialized the instrument marks it as the “current” disk.
The instrument will only store data to the “current” disk. If any other
disk is placed in the drive this message will appear. The message will
disappear when the “current” disk is inserted or a new disk is
initialized.
WRITE-
PROTECTED
Yellow The disk in the drive has its write-protected tab set to the protect
position.
DISK MISSING Yellow Data storage is enabled, but no disk is installed in the disk drive.
