Data File Procedures

Perform the following procedures to OPEN, LOAD, STORE, and ERASE memory card instrument data (DATA) files.

Using Data Open

Perform the procedure in Figure 3-8 to open a data file in preparation for recording measurement data to the memory card. This procedure is automatically invoked if the

Qkey is pressed and the instrument is configured for memory card operations. The instrument automatically assigns the next sequential dAtxx file name. To assign your own file name, use the up/down and left/right arrow keys when creating the file. When dAt99 is reached, the instrument loops back to reuse previously assigned file names that have been erased or skipped over. Data cannot be appended to an existing file, except in the case where scanning is turned off and on without changing the instrument configuration. Before using the DATA OPEN command, verify the instrument is configured for measurement. If a file is opened and then the instrument configuration is changed, the file will automatically be closed.
