Front Panel Operation: Store/Recall > STORERECALLDELETERENAMEAUTO

To rename a location, select RENAME. Press the arrow keys to move the cursor to a specific position and then turn the knob to select the desired letter or number. To clear the name of a location, change each character to “ ^ ” (starting with the rightmost character) and then press the left arrow key to move to the next character.

To automatically recall a specific location when power is restored, select AUTO. Use the knob to scroll through the available locations containing a stored state.

Remote Interface Operation: Use the following commands to store and

recall instrument states.

*SAV {12345} *RCL {12345}

To assign a user- defined name to a stored state to be recalled from the front panel, see the following example. From the remote interface, you can only recall a stored state using a number (1 through 5).

MEM:STAT:NAME 1,TEST_RACK_1

To configure the instrument to automatically recall location 2 when power is restored, send the following commands.

*SAV 2

MEM:STATE:RECALL:SELECT 2 MEM:STATE:RECALL:AUTO ON

Error Conditions

When the front panel ERROR annunciator turns on, one or more command syntax or hardware errors have been detected. A record of up to 20 errors can be stored in the instrument’s error queue. Each remote interface I/O session (i.e., GPIB, USB, LAN, etc.) has its own interface- specific error queue. Errors appear in the error queue of the I/O session that caused the error (the front panel reports errors from all I/O sessions).

For a complete listing of the error messages, see the Agilent 34980A Programmer’s Reference Help file, located on the Product Reference CD- ROM. The CD- ROM is located inside the rear cover of this manual.

The instrument beeps once each time a command syntax or hardware error is generated.

A special global error queue holds all power- on and hardware- related errors (e.g., over- temperature, Safety Interlock, etc.).
