Saving and Loading Instrument Settings and Measurement
Results
The R&S FSH’s settings and measurement results can be saved to the internal memory and recalled at
a later date. Using the
R&S FSH View
software package, these data sets can also be saved to a PC
from the R&S FSH or downloaded onto the R&S FSH from a PC.
Results and settings, including the measurement function, are always saved en bloc so that when the
results are recalled the measurement context is clear. The R&S FSH can store a maximum of 256 data
sets which are assigned a unique name.
Data sets for scalar transmission and reflection measurements can be stored along with their calibration
data. When such data sets are recalled, therefore, measurements can be performed without prior
calibration. Saving a data set with calibration data, however, requires twice as much memory space as
without it, i.e. a data set with calibration data takes up the space required for two data sets without
calibration data. This reduces the maximum number of data sets that can be stored by the number of
data sets stored with calibration data.
Storage of calibration data can be selected in the SETUP menu (see Chapter 2, section "Saving
Calibration Data“).
If cable models, channel tables, limit lines or transducer factors are stored simultaneously, the
maximum number of data sets will be reduced. In addition, the size of the data sets can vary as a
function of the selected measurement function. The following table shows the storage space
requirements for the various lists and data sets as well as the maximum or possible number allowed per
data type.

The R&S FSH provides a total storage space of 2 MB. For example, if all lists with the maximum
possible number are used, 121 data sets with a size of 10 kB can still be stored:
