8.7.4
Using a USB storage device for file transfer
Alternatively to the file transfer possibility via LAN, you can use a USB storage device
for direct file transfer from and to the instrument.
We recommend that you transfer files with user data (like lists or instrument setup files)
to the instrument, rather than load and play them from a connected USB storage
device.
To transfer a file with user data to the instrument
1. Connect a USB storage device, for example a USB memory stick to one of the
USB interfaces of the instrument.
The R&S
AREG800A recognizes the connected USB storage device automatically.
2.
3.
Enable write permission on the file system
4. Select "System Config > Save/Recall".
The dialog displays the
/var/user/
directory and the
/usb/
drive.
