3.19.15 Store & Recall
The instrument’s current configuration can be saved in a register for later recall.
3.19.15.1 Saving a Configuration
The commands for saving the instrument state are based on the ST function code:
Syntax: ST [r] EN
ST is the Save function code
[r] identifies the register in which the instrument’s configuration is to be saved (and from which it
can later be retrieved). The value of [r] can be any number from 1 through 20
EN is a required terminating suffix
Example:
ST 12 EN ! SAVES THE CURRENT INSTRUMENT CONFIGURATION IN REGISTER 12
NOTE:
Register 0 contains the previous state of the instrument; to recover from an accidental preset,
recall the configuration from that register.
3.19.15.2 Retrieving a Configuration
The commands for recalling a configuration from a register are based on the RC function code:
Syntax: RC [ r ] EN
RC is the Recall function code
[
r ] identifies the register in which the instrument’s prior configuration has been saved and from
which it is now to be retrieved. The value of [ r ] can be any number from 0 through 20
EN is a required terminating suffix
Example:
RC 3 EN ! RECALL THE CONFIGURATION THAT WAS SAVED IN REGISTER 3
Example 2:
RC 0 EN ! RECALL THE PRIOR CONFIGURATION (THIS COMMAND RECOVERS
! FROM CONFIGURATION ERRORS)
