FTP Procedures
There are three ways to FTP files:
— use the Microsoft Internet Explorer FTP feature
— use the PC’s or UNIX command window
— use the signal generator’s internal web server
Using Microsoft Internet Explorer
1. Enter the signal generator’s hostname or IP address as part of the FTP
URL.
ftp://<host name> or
ftp://<IP address>
2. Press Enter on the keyboard or Go from the Internet Explorer window.
The signal generator files appear in the Internet Explorer window.
3. Drag and drop files between the PC and the Internet Explorer window
Using the Command Window (PC or UNIX)
This procedure downloads to non–volatile memory. To download to volatile
memory, change the file path.
Avoid using the *OPC? or *WAI commands to verify that the FTP process
has been completed. These commands can potentially hang up due to the
processing of other SCPI parser operations. Refer to the SCPI Command
Reference.
If you are remotely FTPing files and need to verify the completion of the
FTP process, then query the instrument by using SCPI commands such as:
':MEM:DATA:', ':MEM:CAT', '*STB?', 'FREQ?', '*IDN?', 'OUTP:STAT?'. Refer to
the SCPI Command Reference.
Get and Put commands write over existing files by the same name in
destination directories. Remember to change remote and local filenames
to avoid the loss of data.
