8. Analysis and Processing
of Result
NOTE Before saving the calibration data (user calibration data array, fixture compensation data 
array) with the STATE save, you must turn on (enable) each calibration function. For how 
to turn on the user calibration functions, refer to “Turning User Calibration On/Off” on 
page  148. For how to turn on the fixture compensation function, refer to “Turning the 
fixture compensation on or off” on page  153.
Before saving the memory array or memory trace array with the STATE save or the DATA 
save, you must save the data into the memory array and memory trace array with the 
DATA 
® MEMORY
 key. For more information on using the DATA ® MEMORY key to save data 
into the memory array and memory trace array, refer to “Trace-based Comparison and 
Calculation” on page  179.
For the each saving step, see “Save the setting state, calibration data and memory array 
(State Save)” on page  271, “Save the calibration data and trace data (Data Save)” on page  
273, and “Saving display screen (GRAPHICS save)” on page  288.
Save the setting state, calibration data and memory array (State Save)
The following steps are used to save the setting state, calibration data (user calibration data 
and graphic compensation data), and memory array (memory data before being sent to the 
memory trace through measurement parameter conversion) except for the Agilent 4294A 
adapter setup data:
Step 1. Press the 
[Save] key to display the save menu.
Step 2. Press the 
STORE DEV [ ] key to display the storage device menu.
Step 3. Select the Agilent 4294A storage device.

2. The adapter setup data will not be lost even if you turn off the power or execute presetting with the 
[Preset] key. 
The adapter setup data is maintained for each adapter selection. For how to set up adapters (adapter selection and 
adapter setup), refer to “Adapter Setting” on page  67.
