This will tell SMAUG that you wish to move some (or all) of the spectra to the AED common block so that the AED display program can display them onto the AED terminal.

‘Spectrum to Link? ‘ asks for the name(s) of the spectrum that you wish to have moved individually. If you enter the response ‘ALL’, the program will attempt to put every spectrum that it has defined into the AED common block. The AED display will be started at this point if it has not already been called up.

It should be noted that since SMAUG can hold more spectra than the AED can, it is very possible to get the error message;

‘Insufficient space left in the AED storage area (F).’

If this message appears then the program will return to the main command loop automatically.
