Review of Australian Standards. To keep abreast of progress in industry, Australian Standards are subject
to periodic review and are kept up to date by the issue of amendments or new editi ons as necessary. It is
important therefore that Standards users ensure that they are in possession of the latest editi on, and any
amendments thereto.
Full detail s of all Australi an Standards and related publications wil l be found in the Standards Australia
Catalogue of Publications; this information is supplemented each month by the magazine ‘The Australi an
Standard’, which subscribing members receive, and which gives details of new publications, new editi ons
and amendments, and of withdrawn Standards.
Suggesti ons for improvements to Australi an Standards, addressed to the head off ice of Standards Australia,
are welcomed. Noti fi cati on of any inaccuracy or ambiguity found in an Australi an Standard should be made
without delay in order that the matter may be investigated and appropriate action taken.

31 831 ftprad using modified frequency modulation recording, on 80 tracks on each side. Such flexible disk
cartridges are identified as ISO Type 303.
It specifies the mechanical, physical and magnetic characteristics of the cartridge, so as to provide physical inter-
changeability between data processing systems.
It also specifies the method of recording, the quality of the recorded signals, the track layout and the track format.
Together with ISO 9293, this International Standard provides for full data interchange between data processing
systems.
2 Conformance
A 90 mm flexible disk cartridge is in conformance with this International Standard if it meets all mandatory
requirements specified herein.
