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.

Turn the dial as necessary to select SAVE VOLUME, and then press [OK].

Turn the dial as necessary to select the disk (partition) you wish to save to.
●
To save to floppy disk, select DRIVE=FDD. (This selection is forced if you have not
mounted a SCSI drive.)
●
To save to a SCSI disk, select DRIVE=SCSI (if the disk is unpartitioned) or
DRIVE=SCSI P

disk, as follows.
If saving to a floppy disk
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-
ECUTING... as it erases the disk, then briefly display VOLUME=FD VOLUM, and
then begins saving as described in Step 6 below.
If you do not wish to proceed when you see the OK TO CLEAR ALL? message,
press [CANCEL] once (the screen displays CHANGE DISK), 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.)
