*SAV
*SAV <location>
If <location> is specified, it must be in the range 0 to 9. If
<location> is not specified, the instrument state will be
saved into nonvolatile memory location 1. Note that *SAV
location 0 is recalled at power-up if the DIP switch SW1-8 is
set.
The *SAV command saves all of the attributes described in
the *RCL command description into the specified
nonvolatile memory location.
*TRG Command
The *TRG command is required by the IEEE-488.2
specification. This command is accepted but has no effect
on the EMS.
*WAI Command
The *WAI command is required by the IEEE-488.2
specification. This command is accepted but has no effect
on the EMS.
Performing the Self-Test
The EMS performs a series of self-tests when power is first
applied. If any of the self-tests fail, the following message
is displayed on the 10 character LED display on the front of
the VXI mainframe:
Self Test Failed!
To determine the cause of this failure, perform one of the
following 3 operations:
C
Connect an RS-232 terminal to the RS-232 port of the
EMS. Cycle power to the EMS by removing and
reconnecting the AC power cord. Observe the error
messages displayed on the terminal to determine which of
the self-tests have failed.
C
Connect an RS-232 terminal and keyboard to the RS-232
port of the EMS. Type the command
SYST:ERR?
on the keyboard. Observe the reply to determine the
cause of the self-test failure. The meaning of the replies
to this query are discussed later in this section.
