3458A Questions - RAM size opt. 01

Is there a way to tell if the Option 001 RAM is installed using only the

front panel controls?

MSIZE? returns "151552,13572" if opt. 01 is installed.

The first number is the size of reading memory, here including the additional 128k.

Frank,

Thanks.  That's what I was looking for.  On mine (No Options), I get '20480,
14152'.

When I input 'OPT?' I get 'OPT 0,0' which is what I would expect.  I wonder
if I just install the RAM, would it return an indication that Option 001 was
installed?  Somehow, I think that it would need a change in the EPROM.

Joe
