Creating and Downloading User–Data Files
Pattern RAM (PRAM) Data Downloads
There are two commands that download a file for no extraction:
— :MEM:DATA <"file_name">,<blockdata>
— :MMEM:DATA <"filename">,<blockdata>
The following table uses the first command to illustrate the command format,
however the format is the same if you use the second command.
Modifying PRAM Files
The only way to change PRAM file data is to modify the original file on a
computer and download it again. The signal generator does not support
viewing and editing PRAM file contents. Because the signal generator
