Chapter 3.
How To
Configure
The Software
INTRODUCTION
This chapter describes the mass storage and data storage requirements, addressing, and test
equip¬
ment requirements to run the
software.
Also included
is
a
description of the modifications that you can
make to
configure the
software
to match your
test system.
MASS STORAGE AND
DATA
STORAGE REQUIREMENTS
In
this document,
mass storage refers to the storage
location of the test software, and the location of
the user generated calibration data
files
(described
in
section
6).
The
test software includes
all pro¬
gram
files
and data
files supplied
on the test software discs (with the exception of "Install"). The total
mass storage requirement
is
approximately
750
kbytes.
In
this
document, data storage refers
to the
storage location
of the test result data
files
(measurement
data).
All
tests
(with
the exception of
CW frequency accuracy
and the
phase
lock diagnostic) store the
measurement data onto
the designated data storage device.
The data storage requirement
(per
instrument)
is
approximately
15
kbytes.
MASS STORAGE AND
DATA
STORAGE ADDRESSING
The software
is
factory-configured for use on an HP 9153A
or 9122D
set to HP-IB
address 700,
or on
an
HP
91331-1
configured
for one volume and set
to HP-IB address 700. With either
of these disc drives,
the mass storage device
is
drive
0
(fixed disc drive for the
HP 9153A or 9133H),
and the data storage
device
is
drive
1
(floppy disc drive).
If
you wish to use
a
different HP-IB address for the
disc
drive,
select
a
different number of volumes on the HP 9133H, or use
a
different disc drive, you may need to
modify
a
few
lines of
code
in
the
software
for the
software to
run.
See MODIFYING MASS STORAGE
AND
DATA
STORAGE ADDRESSING
for details on modifying the software.
If
you use the configura¬
tion described above, no modification
is
required.
MODIFYING MASS STORAGE AND
DATA
STORAGE ADDRESSING
Four
system variables located
in
the overhead program
(FS_MANAGER,
subprogram
Mass_stg_init)
define two addresses (storage locations), one each
for:
The
test software
The measurement data
files
Each address requires two system variables
1.
The
directory pointer
2.
The mass storage
unit specifier
Attenuator Calibration and Operation Verification
