Saving/Recalling
Specifying a file
When running a command for saving, recalling, or managing files, use a file name with
extension to specify a particular file. Specify “A:” at the beginning of the file name when
specifying a file on the floppy disk. Also, when specifying a file name with a directory, use
“/” (slash) or “\” (backslash) as a delimiter.
Saving and recalling instrument status
You can save the instrument state by using one of the following methods:
R
Saving the entire instrument state (setting and data) into a file
R
Saving only the instrument setting into a file
Options for saving and recalling instrument status
When saving the instrument status into a file, you have two options for selecting the
content to be saved: entire instrument state (setting and data) and instrument setting only.
To select the content to be saved, use the following command:

To save the instrument setting (or instrument setting and data), use the following
command:

Recalling a file saved with the above command reproduces the file’s status when it was last
saved. To recall the settings from a file, use the following command:
•
Auto recall
The file saved with the name F:\autorec.sta or A:\autorec.sta will be automatically recalled
when the E5052A is powered on.
Saving measurement data
Measurement data (in a formatted data array) can be saved in the file in CSV (Comma
Separated Value) format. To save measurement data in a file, use the following command
(“xx” specifies any one of the measurements (PN, SP, FP, TR, USER) while “y” specifies
the number of the trace):
•
:MMEMory:xx[1-1]:TRACe[1-y]:STORe
Executing the above command will save the specified trace data of the specified
measurement. Note that the data saved using the above command cannot be recalled from
the E5052A.
