Syntax

*SAV {0|1|2|3|4|5}

*RCL {0|1|2|3|4|5}

Description

These commands store and recall instrument states into the specified storage location. The *SAV command saves the current instrument state and overwrites any state previously stored in the same location is overwritten (no error is generated).

Remarks

• The instrument has six storage locations in non-volatile memory to store instrument states. You can store the instrument state in location 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5, but you can only recall a state from a location that contains a previously stored state.
• LAN I/O configuration is not stored by a *SAV operation or recalled by a *RCL. Only instrument configuration is recalled.
• When shipped from the factory, all six storage locations are empty.
• State 0 is overwritten at power down.
• A Factory Reset (*RST command) does not affect the configurations stored in memory. Once a state is stored, it remains until it is overwritten.

Example

The following command stores the current instrument state in location 1.

*SAV 1
