UTILITY ROUTINES
Since the output from the DATANET-30 General Assembly Program is magnetic tape (switch
option) or punched cards and the input to the DATANET-30 is punched paper tape, a conversion
program is needed.
A utility routine (General Assembly Program 3} on the DATANET-30
General Assembly Program systems tape will accomplish this, producing paper tape in various
formats on a free-standing paper tape unit which has the eight-level straight transfer mode.
One of the formats is compatible with hardware load, so that self-loading programs can be
produced. Other formats are read by paper tape loader programs.
The Paper Tape Conversion (General Assembly Program 3) Utility Routine can be run following
the DATANET-30 General Assembly Program by setting the console switches.
