Setting Up
11. Using the Mass Storage Module (MSM)
To boot from the MSM hard drive, ensure that the programmer disk drive is
empty, then turn on the programmer.
The MSM is partitioned into four logical drives with the following specifications:
Max. No.
Drive Storage of Files Data Type
C 31 MB 512 User data
D 31 MB 512 User data
H 7 MB 320 System data
I 10 MB 320 System data
Drives C and D are reserved for user data, and drives H and I are reserved for
system use. Although drives H and I can be written to and read from, we
STRONGLY suggest you use only C and D to store your data. Periodically copy
the data on the C and D drives to use as a backup if needed.
Drives C and D can be used for same file operations that can be performed
using the floppy drive except for these two file operations:
� Format Disk—Format only C and D. Formatting H or I will render your
programmer inoperative until you restore them from the floppy disks.
� Duplicate Disk—Drives C, D, H, and I cannot be duplicated using this
command.
