4.5.6 Archiving
Introduction
Recorded data, logs and configuration files stored in the instrument's internal memory can be archived to files created in removable
media in either text or binary encoded format. Parameters for archiving Process Group 1 are set up independently from Process
Group 2 parameters.
For a full description of archiving and archive file formats, refer to Sections 3.5 to 3.10.
Data is saved to the archive file at the same rate as it is saved to internal memory, i.e. at either the Group's primary or secondary
recording sample rate.
