Using Instrument Functions
Saving and Recalling Measurement Results
To Recall from a Disk or Internal Memory
The network analyzer allows you to recall and display measurement
results that you saved as STATE hles. You can then compare the recalled
measurements to subsequent measurements. The analyzer can display
both a data and memory trace for each measurement channel. The data
trace is saved when you select Data ON in the DerP ia@ Sav# menu. The
memory trace is saved as part of the instrument state. These traces will be
automatically redisplayed when you recall the file from a disk or internal
memory.
Calibration sets are linked to the instrument state and measurement
parameter for which the calibration was done. Therefore a saved calibration
can be used for multiple instrument states as long as the measurement
parameter, frequency range, and number of points are the same.
1. Press CSAVE RECALL) Sal@sct Ojt& and press the key that corresponds to
