Saving procedures
As you create your procedures they are stored in the memory in Smart Box, but they are lost when the power is switched off. You can save your procedures to the disk on your PC so that they can be recalled at a later date. With Smart Move you can save individual procedures or save all the procedures you create as a group.
To save all procedures together type SAVE followed by a filename. The filename must be different from any of the procedure names you have used when you are saving a number of procedures together.
To save an individual procedure type SAVE followed by a filename followed by the name of the procedure you wish to save. The file name and procedure name can be the same when you are saving an individual procedure.
The following example presumes that you have created three procedures: flash, FlashThemAll and lights. (To see a list of the procedures you have created type LIST < Enter >)
SAVE project saves all the procedures in memory under the filename project.[edit]

Procedure: flash
FOR 5 TIMES SWITCH ON OUTPUT 1 WAIT 1 Procedure: FlashThemAll LET number = 0 FOR 5 TIMES PRINT number SWITCH ON OUTPUT number Procedure: lights flash FlashThemAll |
SAVE flash flash saves the procedure flash as flash on the disk.[edit]

SAVE FlashAll FlashThemAll

Procedure: FlashThemAll
LET number = 0 FOR 5 TIMES PRINT number SWITCH ON OUTPUT number WAIT 1 SWITCH OFF OUTPUT number WAIT 1 LET number = number + 1 NEXT |
The filename is limited to 8 characters so you will have to abbreviate long procedure names in this way when you save them.
