Entering a folder name from the front panel
With the “Create new folder” window displayed as shown on the previous page, 
enter a folder name (or any file name) as follows:
1 Press the ‘Browse’ soft key and use the front panel knob to highlight the 
counter’s internal flash memory (Internal), or if present, the USB drive 
connected to the front panel host port (External). Press the ‘Select’ soft key to 
select the drive.
2 To create a folder name, rotate the knob to select a character. The knob scrolls 
through A-Z (upper case), a-z (lower case), numbers 0-9, selected keyboard 
characters, decimal point (.), underscore (_), and space. Once the desired 
character is set, press the right arrow (>) key under the knob to move to the 
next position.
3 Repeat until the folder name is complete. Use the left arrow key (<) to 
backspace and change a character. Changing the character to a space erases 
the character. Press ‘Create Folder’ to create the folder.
Specifying a default folder
Designating a folder as the default (current) folder eliminates the need to specify 
an absolute path each time a sub-folder or file is created or referenced. The 
command:
MMEMory:CDIRectory “<folder>” 
MMEMory:CDIRectory? (query form)
selects folder as the current folder used by subsequent MMEMory subsystem 
commands. folder is of the form drive:path (see MMEMory:DIRectory for 
drive:path details). 
For example, an alternate way to create folders dut_1 and data1 is:
//create folder ‘dut_1’ and select it as the current folder
//create sub-folder ‘data1’
MMEM:MDIR “INT:\dut_1”
MMEM:CDIR “INT:\dut_1”
MMEM:MDIR “data1”
