What You Can Save to the Analyzer’s Internal Memory
The number of registers that the analyzer allows you to save depends on the size of
associated error-correction sets, and memory traces. However, the maximum number of
registers that can be saved to internal memory is 31. Refer to the "Preset State and
Memory Allocation" chapter of the reference guide for further information.
You can save instrument states in the analyzer internal memory, along with the following
list of analyzer settings. The default file names are REG<01-31>.
• error-corrections on channels 1 and 2
• displayed memory trace
• print/plot definitions
• measurement setup
❏frequency range
❏number of points
❏sweep time
❏output power
❏sweep type
❏measurement parameter
NOTE When the ac line power is switched off, the internal non-volatile memory is
retained by a battery. Refer to “Specifications and Characteristics” in the
reference guide for data retention times.
