11.7 Saving/Loading Set-up Data
Function
Saving the set-up data
Except for the date/time, communication and SCSI ID number set-up data, the current set-up
data, set with the panel keys, can be stored.
Required memory capacity (in bytes)
Approx. 28 K bytes
File name and comment
A file name must be provided, but it is not necessary to provide a comment. For details refer to
page 4-2.
Auto naming function
When “Auto Naming” is set to ON, files are automatically created with 3-digit numbers from
“000” to “999.” A common filename (up to 5 characters, specified with Filename) can be
inserted before the number.
Precautions to be taken when storing set-up data
• Storing is not possible while acquisition is in progress. To enable storing, press the
START/
STOP
key to stop acquisition.
• The set-up data will be stored automatically into the DL_SETUP directory, with the
extension identifier “SET.”
• The maximum number of files that can be saved in a single directory is 1000.
Loading the set-up data
When set-up data is loaded, the current key settings are replaced by the loaded set-up data,
except for the date/time and the GP-IB settings. However, date, time, GP-IB settings, settings
dealing with File, and SCSI ID number are not changed.
Precautions to be taken when loading set-up data
• Loading is not possible while acquisition is in progress. To enable loading, press the
START/STOP
key to stop acquisition.
• Set-up data resides in the DL_SETUP directory and has the extension identifier “SET.”
• Do not delete or rename the file such as on a PC. If you do so, you will not be able to load
the data.
Confirming the module configuration/record length of the file to load
You can confirm the module configuration/record length that existed at the time the data were
saved. The current module configuration is also listed. Furthermore, the channels that differ in
the configuration between the current and the saved data are indicated with red characters.
If the saved data are loaded in a condition in which the current module configuration is different
from the module configuration that existed when the data were saved, then only the channels
that have the same modules installed will be set up correctly. Channels that have different
modules installed may not be set up correctly. The data cannot be loaded for channels that do
not have modules installed.
