7.2.4 Storing and Loading Instrument Settings
7.2.4.1 Storing Instrument Settings
In the following example, the settings/measured data to be stored are initially defined, in which
case only the hardware settings are stored. However, the selection commands for the other
settings are specified with the state "OFF" for the sake of completeness.
REM ************************************************************************
Public Sub StoreSettings()
Dim status As ViStatus
Dim retCnt As Long
'This subroutine selects the settings to be stored and creates the
'data record "TEST1" in the directory D:\USER\DATA. It uses the default
'setting and resets the instrument after the setting is stored.
REM ------ Default settings of the R&S FSQ ---------------------------------
Call SetupInstrument
status = viWrite(analyzer, "INIT:CONT OFF", 13, retCnt)
'Change to single sweep
status = viWrite(analyzer, "INIT;*WAI", 9, retCnt)
'Perform sweep with sync
REM ------ Selection of settings to be stored ------------------------------
status = viWrite(analyzer, "MMEM:SEL:HWS ON", 15, retCnt)
'Store hardware settings
status = viWrite(analyzer, "MMEM:SEL:TRAC OFF", 17, retCnt)
'Do not store any traces
status = viWrite(analyzer, "MMEM:SEL:LIN:ALL OFF", 20, retCnt)
'Store only the activated limit lines
REM ------ Entering comments -----------------------------------------------
status = viWrite(analyzer, "MMEM:COMM 'Test Setup'", 22, retCnt)
REM ------ Storing on the instrument ---------------------------------------
status = viWrite(analyzer, "MMEM:STOR:STAT 1,'D:\USER\DATA\TEST1'", 37, retCnt)
REM ------ Resetting the instrument ----------------------------------------
status = viWrite(analyzer, "*RST", 4, retCnt)
