Keysight 81160A - Instrument State Storage

Appendix

3.15.1 Instrument State Storage
Introduction
The 81150A / 81160A has five storage locations in non-volatile memory to
store instrument states. The locations are numbered 0 through 4.
Storage location “0” holds the instruments default state. It is not possible to
store an instrument state to location “0”.
You can also assign a user-defined name to each of the locations (1 through
4) for use from the front panel.
Characteristics
 You can store the instrument state in location “1” to “4”. However,
you can only recall a state from a location that contains a previously-
stored state.
 From the remote interface only, you can recall location “0”. This is
equivalent to using the SCPI command *RST.
 The state storage feature “remembers” the selected function (including
the name of the arbitrary waveforms), frequency, amplitude, dc offset,
duty cycle, symmetry, as well as any modulation parameters in use.
 When shipped from the factory, storage locations “1” through “4” are
empty (location “0” contains the default state).
 When power is turned off, the 81150A / 81160A automatically stores its
state in a non-volatile memory (battery backed up). You can configure
the 81150A / 81160A to automatically recall the power-down state or
the default state when power is restored. When shipped from the
factory, the 81150A / 81160A is configured to automatically recall the
power-down state at power-on. However, when recalling the power-
down state, the outputs will always be forced to the off state.
 You can assign a custom name from ”1” to “4”to storage locations
(however, you cannot name location “0”). You can name a location from
the front panel or over the remote interface, but you can only recall a
state by name from the front panel. From the remote interface, you can
only recall a stored state using a number (0 through 4).
