Using Test Sequencing
character.
The analyzer cannot accept a title (file name) that is longer than eight characters. Your titles must also
begin with a letter, and contain only letters and numbers.
3. To complete the titling, press .
Naming Files Generated by a Sequence
The analyzer can automatically increment the name of a file that is generated by a sequence using a loop
structure. (See example
"Loop counter decision making" on page 1-114.)
To access the sequence file name menu, press:
•
•
•
This menu presents two choices:
• supplies a name for the saved state or data file. This also brings up the Title File
Menu.
• supplies a name for the plot file generated by a plot-to-disk command.
This also brings up the Title File Menu.
These keys show the current file name in the 2nd line of the softkey.
When titling a file for use in a loop function, you are restricted to only 2 characters in the file name due to
the 6 character length of the loop counter keyword “[LOOP].” When the file is actually written, the [LOOP]
keyword is expanded to only 5 ASCII characters (digits), resulting in a 7 character file name.
After entering the 2 character file name, press:
Storing a Sequence on a Disk
1. To format a disk, refer to Chapter 4 , “Printing, Plotting, and Saving Measurement Results.”
2. To save a sequence to the internal disk, press:
and select the particular sequence softkey.
The disk drive access light should turn on briefly. When it goes out, the sequence has been saved.
CAUTION The analyzer will overwrite a file on the disk that has the same title.
CAUTION Do not mistake the line switch for the disk eject button.
Loading a Sequence from Disk
For this procedure to work, the desired file must exist on the disk in the analyzer drive.
