Saving a File
Saving a File
Files can be saved either using the autonaming scheme or using a
personalized name.
The autonaming scheme is only available if you have selected the option as
explained in
Setting up Storage Options on page 25 and if the file you are
saving is a new acquisition (as opposed to an already existing file that you
have opened).
I
MPORTANT
Since acquisition files can be extremely large, they are directly sent
to the storage location and are not kept in memory to optimize the
operation speed of the unit.
If the location you have selected for saving files is external to the
unit (for example, a USB key or a drive linked through a network),
you must leave the external storage device or link in place while you
are working on your files. Otherwise, the unit cannot save the data
and you will lose any change made since the time you removed the
storage device or connection.
