Waveform data or settings data saved to storage media can be loaded on the
instrument.
Furthermore, if you create a STARTUP.SET file for auto setup (p. 297), the set-
tings data can be loaded automatically from the storage media at power-on.
See
"Creating a Settings File for Auto Setup" (p. 297)
"Automatically Loading Settings Data (Auto Setup)" (p. 296)
Multiple setting states can be stored in the instrument and later reloaded. In the
same way, settings can also be automatically reloaded when power is turned on.
See "Select the data to load: Loading from the instrument" (p. 294)
Data Not Loadable on the Instrument
• Data saved in text, BMP, or PNG format.
• Data saved on devices other than the 8860-50 and 8861-50.
• When the data is loaded, the file name appears on the bottom left of the wave-
form screen. The file name is displayed until the START key is pressed.

File Extension
IDX
Loads all saved files that were divided at a specified recording length.
SEQ (Memory function only)
Loads all saved files that were saved as individual blocks by Memory Divi-
sion.
RSI (Real-Time Saving Function only)
Loads files saved using the Real-Time Saving function.
R_M (REC&MEM Function only)
Loads files saved using the REC&MEM function.
• When the data is loaded from the storage media:
The storage media needs to be inserted before it can be selected.
If the data on the storage media is to be modified, make sure write protection
is disabled before you insert the storage media.
• When loading waveform data that was stored with a different input module
configuration, the input module setting status of the loaded waveform data is
displayed on the Channel setting screen. To revert to the settings of the cur-
rently installed input modules for subsequent measurements, press the
START key to measure once, or initialize the waveform data (p. 365).
If the “Cannot load this file” message appears:
Check the format of the selected file. The instrument can load waveforms and
settings data saved in binary format.
