Storage functions

The SiteOne instrument contains a built-in SSD drive, which appears on
your PC, when you insert the USB cable. The directory is called ‘Data’.

This drive contains all the Preset Measurements & the data structure used
in the Preset Measurement menu.

When the Copy function is activated, the file saving is carried out according
to the settings in the ‘Preset Measurements’ menu.

In this case the ‘Write .S1P’ function is activated, which means that an S-
parameter file will also be written. This file can subsequently be imported
into math tools on your PC, for further analysis and calculations.
