Using the Instrument State Registers
The instrument state register is a section of memory divided into 10 sequences
(numbered 0 through 9) with each sequence consisting of 100 registers
(numbered 00 through 99). Instrument state sequences and registers are used
to store and recall instrument settings and provide a quick way to reconfigure
the signal generator when switching between different instrument and signal
configurations.
The signal generator with either Option 005 (internal hard drive – 4 GB), or
Options 008, and 009 (flash drive – 8 GB) installed, utilizes the memory for
storing instrument state files and other user data. If these options are not
installed, the signal generator has 20 MB available for data and instrument
state storage. Instrument state files can vary in length depending on the signal
generator’s configuration.
File data, such as modulation formats, arb setups, and table entries, are not
stored with the save function. Only setups such as frequency, attenuation,
power and other user–defined settings that do not survive a power cycle or
instrument reset can be saved to a sequence and register. Any data file, such
