SD.LOAD

Description

SD.LOAD will load the drive state from the SD card (if one exists) to the AKD. The files loaded to the drive include the BASIC binary file (program.bin) and the NV parameter file (drive.akd). These files must have these exact names or the drive will not recognize them.

Note that this command can only be executed when the drive is in the idle state (i.e. a program is not running) and the drive is disabled.

If a computer is not connected to the drive, the SD.LOAD command can also be issued using the rotary switches S1 and S2.

To load the SD drive state onto the AKD:

  1. Set S1 to position 1
  2. Set S2 to position 0
  3. Hold down the B1 button on the top of the drive for 5 seconds.

  • While the load operation is completing the LED display will flash Sd. If an error occurs, the letter E followed by three numbers will flash on the display. See for a description of SD Errors.
