MEASUREMENT
CONFIGURATION
EDIT
COMMANDS
The Measurement Configuration Edit commands shown below have been split into separate sections for clarity; all of the commands
described in these sections are controlled by the EDITCONFIG and SAVECONFIG commands.
While performing an internal DC zero you should not send any of these commands to the XT2640.
These commands are checked only for syntax and compatibility with the installed hardware (if applicable) when each command is
received and are not executed and the consistency of setting combinations are not checked until the SAVECONFIG command is used.
In this manner you may configure measurements using these commands in any order without the need to consider intermediate
potentially incompatible setting combinations. For this reason, the CH1 to CH4 variants of the VDEF field format are not allowed for
these commands.
If you are unsure if there are any pending commands from these sections (e.g. from a prior session where the SAVECONFIG
command was not used) then you may use the EDITCONFIG command to ensure that there are none (the *RST or *CLS command
also accomplish this and are the recommended method but also perform other functions).
A typical command flow is‐
Send the EDITCONFIG command (only to ensure there are no previously unsaved measurement configuration changes)
Send the required measurement configuration commands (in any order)
Send the SAVECONFIG command (to execute the prior measurement configuration commands)
The above command flow can be sent in any number of sets of commands, including all in the same set of commands.

DESCRIPTION
EDITCONFIG
‐
‐
‐
Sets the configuration to be edited by the interface to that presently being used in the
XT2640.
SAVECONFIG
‐
‐
‐
Sets the presently used configuration within the XT2640 to include all changes made
via the interface since the prior EDITCONFIG or SAVECONFIG command. When this
command is executed all measurements in progress may be abandoned and restarted
with the changed configuration (depending on the changes made)
