Labels 9
Agilent InfiniiVision 3000 X-Series Oscilloscopes User's Guide 141
1 Use a text editor to create each label. Each label can be up to ten
characters in length. Separate each label with a line feed.
2 Name the file labellist.txt and save it on a USB mass storage device
such as a thumb drive.
3 Load the list into the oscilloscope using the File Explorer (press [Utility]
> File Explorer).
To reset the label library to the factory default
1 Press [Utility] > Options > Preferences.
2 Press the Default Library softkey.
This will delete all user- defined labels from the library and set the
labels in the library back to the factory default. However, this does not
default the labels currently assigned to the channels (those labels that
appear in the waveform area).
Label List Management
When you press the Library softkey, you will see a list of the last 75 labels used. The list
does not save duplicate labels. Labels can end in any number of trailing digits. As long as
the base string is the same as an existing label in the library, the new label will not be put in
the library. For example, if label A0 is in the library and you make a new label called A12345,
the new label is not added to the library.
When you save a new user-defined label, the new label will replace the oldest label in the
list. Oldest is defined as the longest time since the label was last assigned to a channel.
Any time you assign any label to a channel, that label will move to the newest in the list.
Thus, after you use the label list for a while, your labels will predominate, making it easier
to customize the instrument display for your needs.
When you reset the label library list (see next topic), all of your custom labels will be
deleted, and the label list will be returned to its factory configuration.
Pressing the Default Library softkey will remove all user-defined labels from the library and
set the labels back to the factory default. Once deleted, these user-defined labels cannot be
recovered.
