erly connected to the instrument’s USB
TO DEVICE terminal, and that “CON-

A default file name will automatically be created.

rent cursor location.
The [8] button deletes the character at the
cursor location.

Saving Data
To Overwrite an Existing File
If you want to overwrite a file that already exists
on the USB storage device, use the dial or the
[INC/YES] and [DEC/NO] buttons to select the
file, then skip ahead to step 6.
• If the USB storage device has been write-protected, an appropriate
message will appear on the display and you will not be able to exe-
cute the operation.
• If there is not enough capacity left on the USB storage device to
save the data, an appropriate message will appear on the display
and you will not be able to save the data. Erase unwanted files from
the USB storage device to make more memory available (page 72),
or use a different USB device.
Refer to the “Messages” list on page 83 for other possible errors that
might prevent you from completing the operation.

operation cannot be canceled. Never turn off the power or
remove the USB storage device during this operation.

If an existing filename is specified you will be prompted for confirma-
tion. Press [EXECUTE] or [INC/YES] if it is OK to overwrite the file,
or [DEC/NO] to cancel.
• The amount of time it will take to perform the save operation
depends on the particular USB storage device you are using.
