Creating, storing, and performing operations on configuration lists
and indexes
To create a configuration index, you need to:
• Create a new configuration list and give it a name or use a specific configuration list that already
exists on the instrument
• Configure the instrument with the settings that you want to store in a configuration index
• Store the active settings into a configuration index on the specified configuration list
After you store configuration indexes to a configuration list, you can do the following operations on a
specific configuration index:
• Recall a configuration index and restore the stored settings to the active state
• View the contents of a configuration index
• Delete a configuration index or delete the entire configuration list
You can work with configuration lists from the front panel (see
Using the front panel for configuration
list operations (on page 3-39)) or by using remote commands (see Using remote commands for
configuration list operations (on page 3-43)).
Using the front panel for configuration list operations
This section describes how to store the active settings to a specific index on a configuration list.
See What is a configuration index? (on page 3-38
) for information about how the instrument adds
configuration indexes to configuration lists before reading this section.
The following topics provide information to:
• Create an example measure configuration list named MyMeasList.
• Store two example configuration indexes on MyMeasList. The following table provides
information about specific settings for each configuration index.
• View the contents of a specific configuration index.
• Recall a configuration index from MyMeasList.
Front-panel configuration list menu overview
To display the configuration list menus from the main menu:
