Recall setup and recall
waveform options
You can recall the oscilloscope settings or waveform data from a file on the USB
flash drive through the Save/Recall menu.
Each recall option operates in a similar way. As an example, to recall a waveform
file from a USB flash drive, follow these steps:
1. Insert the USB flash drive that contains the desired waveform file into the
USB Flash Drive port on the front of the oscilloscope.
2. Push the Save/Recall front panel button.
3. Select the Action ► Recall Waveform ► Select File option.
You can use the Change Folder option to navigate to another folder on the
flash drive.
4. Turn the Multipurpose knob to select the waveform file to recall.
The name of the file in the Recall option changes as you scroll.
5. Select the To option and specify which reference memory location to recall
the waveform to (RefA or RefB).
6. Push the Recall FnnnnCHx.CSV option button, where FnnnnCHx.CSV is
the name of the waveform file.
NOTE. For folders on the flash drive that contain one waveform file, select the
Save/Recall ► Action ►Recall Waveform ► To option and specify the
reference memory location to recall the waveform to. The name of the file
appears in the Recall option. See Save-Recall on page 96.
Using the save function of the Front-Panel save button
You can set the front-panel save button to write data to the USB flash drive as
an alternative function. To set the function of the button to save data, access the
following options:
■
Save/Recall ► Action - Save All

Utility ► - more - page 1 of 2 ►Options ► Printer Setup
Saves all to files
The Saves All to Files option lets you save the current oscilloscope information
to files on the USB flash drive. A single Saves All to Files action uses less than
700 kB of space on the flash drive.
Before you can save data to the USB flash drive, you need to change the front-
panel Save button to the alternative Save function. To do so, select the Save/
Recall ► Save All ► Print Button ► Saves All to Files option.
