Memory Storage in the 146 Instrument
The operational parameters of the 146 unit are stored in non-volatile memory as parameters are
changed. The 146 unit is designed to store most user-defined, and 146-determined data in
EEPROM. A front-panel lockout command, however, is not stored. The following is a list of
what is preserved in EEPROM.
Data Stored in EEPROM During Power Loss
Power Down Status Data
Alarm Data (for all alarms)
