State Storage Commands
The 3499A/B/C provides the capability to store setups, and then recall
them to put the instrument back into a known configuration. The
operation of state storage is dependent upon the instrument’s firmware
revision. Refer to “State Storage” on page 106 for more details.
The mem parameter specifies memory locations. Storage memory
locations are numbered 01 to 10 for Firmware revisions 1.0, 2.0, and 3.0.
Memory locations are number 01 to 50 for Firmware revision 4.0.
Saved states can be used as a channel in scan lists. Saved states are not
affected by the reset (*RST) command.
*SAV <mem>
This IEEE488.2 common command saves the current instrument setup
in the memory location specified. A saved memory location can be used in
a scan list as a channel.
*RCL <mem>
This IEEE488.2 common command restores the instrument to a saved
instrument state.
SYSTem:STATe:DELete <mem>|ALL
This command deletes a single instrument state or all stored states.
