Saving/Reading Measured,
Computed and Set-up Data
11
Measured/computed/set-up data is copied from the internal RAM disk to a floppy or vice versa.
Types of files that can be copied (COPY TYPE)
• DATA: copies measured/computed data.
• PANEL: copies setup data.
Saving measured/computed data to a floppy disk
Data measured or computed using the instrument cannot be saved to a floppy disk directly. It
must be saved to the internal RAM disk first, then copied to a floppy disk.
It is not possible to change the file name when copying the file.
Displaying/recording measured/computed data saved on a floppy disk using the
instrument
To use the instrument to display or record measured/computed data copied to a floppy disk, the
file containing measured/computed data must be copied from the floppy disk to the RAM disk.
However, data in ASCII format cannot be copied.
It is not possible to change the file name when copying the file.
Note
• No file copying is possible during computations.
• During copying, GP-IB/RS-232-C/RS-422-A/RS-485 communication remains inactive.
