What You Can Save to a Floppy Disk
You can save an instrument state and measurement results to a disk. The default file
names are FILEn, where n gets incremented by one each time a file with a default na me is
added to the directory. The default file names for data-only files are DATAyDz (DATAy.Dz
for DOS), where y is incremented by one each time a file with a default name is added to
the directory. The z is the channel where the measurement was made. When you save a file
to disk, you can choose to save some or all of the following:
• all settings listed for internal memory
• active error-correction for the active channel only
• displayed measurement data trace
• displayed user graphics
• data only
• HPGL plots
What You Can Save to a Computer
Instrument states can be saved to and recalled from an external computer (system
controller) using GPIB mnemonics. For more information about the specific analyzer
settings that can be saved, refer to the output commands located in the "Command
Reference" chapter of the programmer's guide. For an example program, refer to the
"Programming Examples" chapter of the programmer's guide.
