Naming and renaming files

There are common procedures that you can use to name and rename files, including a lookup capability that allows you to determine if a filename is already in use.

You cannot rename a session file unless it is in the instrument’s memory. Accordingly, you can rename the closed session currently residing in memory, but you must first load a past session file before you can rename it.

NOTE: For past sessions, please follow these steps but first load the file.
