11 - Saving and Recalling Operating States

You can save up to 16 states (from location 0 to location 15) in non-volatile memory and recall them from the front panel. All programmable settings are saved. List data, however, cannot be saved in state storage. Only one list is saved in non-volatile memory.

Action Display

To save an operating state in location 1, proceed as follows:

1.Set the instrument to the operating state that you want to save.

2. Save this state to location 1. Press Shift Save 1 Enter. *SAV 1

To recall a saved state in location 1, proceed as follows:

1.	Recall the state saved in location 1 by pressing Recall 1 Enter	*RCL 1
To select the power-on state of the ac source, proceed as follows:
1.	On the Function keypad, press Shift Output, and scroll through the Output	PON:STATE RST
	menu until you get to the PON state command.

2.Use the ↓ and ° keys to select either RST or RCL0. RST sets the power-on state of the unit as defined by the *RST command. RCL0 sets the power-on state of the unit to the state saved in *RCL location 0.

To clear the non-volatile memory of the ac source, proceed as follows:

1.	On the Function keypad, press Shift Output and scroll to the *RST com-	*RST
	mand. Then press Enter. This returns the unit to the factory-default settings.
