Your task involves the frequently loading and executing of certain SCPI scripts.
Refer to
Chapter 12.9.4, "How to record / create SCPI lists"
mation on how to create an SCPI script.
●
A quick access to saved setups is required.
●
There are functions and tasks you have to perform on several instruments.
Dialog identification
To identify each dialog, the instrument uses a dedicated dialog ID. The dialog ID con-
tains the dialog position on the display and the current active tab. The action that trig-
gers the instrument to open a dialog uses this identification.
Save/Recall vs. recall setup
If you need to restore a specific signal generation setup and perform further configura-
tions based on this particular instrument state, the R&S
SMM100A provides two
options:
●
"Save/Recall" function
For a detailed description, refer to
Chapter 10.4, "Saving and recalling instrument
●
"Recall Setup" function
If the "Recall Setup" is the only user action assigned to the [
★
(User)] key, pressing
this key triggers the R&S
SMM100A to load the user-defined preset file immedi-
ately.
Recalling a user-defined preset file using the [
★
(User)] key is even faster than the
immediate recall function provided by the [Save/Rcl] key.

User menu settings
The "User Menu" dialog contains function keys to organize, save and load a favorites
list. You can also modify, add or delete list entries directly in the dialog.
Clear User Menu
Removes all entries from the "User Menu" at once.
Save User Menu
Saves the current "User Menu" under the defined filename.
Recall User Menu
Loads the selected "User Menu" file.
This function enables you to use the user specific favorites file on another instrument.
However, if functions or parameters are not provided due to varying configuration of
the instrument, the settings of these particular parameters take no effect.
