Saving oscilloscope setup information
You can save the oscilloscope internal settings to an internal memory location
(setup 1–10) or to an external file on the USB drive. A setup file contains most of
the oscilloscope settings, including vertical, horizontal, trigger, cursor, and
measurement parameters. It does not include communications information, such
as GPIB addresses. You can then use the setup data to quickly set the
oscilloscope to take a certain measurement.
Use this procedure to save the current oscilloscope settings to a memory location
or external file.
