Archive
The archive facility allows you to make copies of transaction files onto floppy disk in case
of machine failure and to save space on your PC hard disk.
To archive transaction files:
1. Double click on the
Backup
icon.
2. Double click on the
Archive
icon. A list of transaction files on the hard disk of the
PC is displayed with the current
Archive Status
of each.
The
Archive Status
of each may be:
•
Unarchived
- this file is no longer current and should be archived to disk.
•
Archived
- this file has already been archived.
•
In Use
- this file is being used for current transactions. There will only be one
file with this status.
3. Ensure the correct destination disk drive is specified - default is drive A: - and click
on
OK
.
4. The system will attempt to copy the
lowest
numbered
unarchived
file to the floppy
disk. You will be prompted to insert a disk in the disk drive so the archive can begin.
5. Click on
OK
to copy the file to the floppy disk. If more than one file is unarchived you
will then be prompted for further disks.
Note
: If all other files are archived then the current
In Use
file is copied.

You may not have the privilege to accept alarms or you may wish to investigate
the alarm before accepting it. In this case choose
Queue It
. This places the alarm
on the
Current Alarm Queue
where it can be accepted later following investigation
or by an operator with the correct privileges.
