Using Instrument Functions
Saving and Recalling Measurement Results
Using Fast Recall
with the Front
Panel or a
Keyboard The fast recall feature allows you to recall an instrument state with just
1 or 2 key presses, or to cycle through up to seven different instrument
states with a foot switch or hand switch.
1. Press .
2. If the measurement display area changes to a listing of files on the
currently selected disk, fast recall is off.
If the measurement display area remains unchanged, fast recall is on.
To follow along with this explanation, turn fast recall off by pressing
the
softkey.
3. If necessary, select the internal non-volatile RAM disk by pressing
.
4. If you have previously saved any files to this disk, they will now be
listed on the display.
5. The fast recall feature utilizes only the first seven files listed that
contain instrument state, calibration, or measurement data.
6. If you have not previously saved any files to this disk, you may want
to save a few instrument states now, to follow along.
7. Press . Note that the
measurement display now reappears on the screen and that there are
file names next to the first seven softkeys. (If any of the softkeys are
blank, it's because you had less than seven files saved on the disk.)
The files are placed on the softkeys in the order in which they appear
in the disk's directory table.
NOTE
You may want to use the feature to give your files more
meaningful names. See “Other File Utilities” on page 4-63 for
information on renaming files.
8. To "fast recall" an instrument state, press the softkey next to the file
that contains the instrument state.
9. The fast recall toggle will remain on (even when the analyzer is
) until manually turned off.
10. With the fast recall feature turned on, you will always be only 1 or 2
key presses away from recalling an instrument state.
