7.3.3 Register 1 thru Register 16
Selecting any one of these register buttons causes the state of the currently active
Mode to be saved to the specified Register. The registers are provided for rapid
saving and recalling, since you do not need to specify a filename or navigate to a file.
Each of the register menu keys annotates whether it is empty or at what date and
time it was last modified. In addition, you can edit any of the register names to enter
custom names for any register.
Although these 16 registers are the only registers available from the front panel,
there are 128 state registers available in the instrument. Registers 17-128 are only
available from the SCPI interface, using the *SAV command.
There is one set of 128 state registers in the instrument, not one set for each Mode.
When a state is saved, the Mode it was saved from is saved with it; then when it is
recalled, the instrument switches to that Mode.
NOTE
In products that run multiple simultaneous instances of the X-Series Application,
all instances share the same registers and file directories, so take care not to
overwrite files and/or registers from one instance that were saved by another
instance.
The date displayed follows the format specified in the Date Format setting under the
Control Panel. The time shows hours and minutes.
After the save completes, the corresponding register menu key annotation is
updated with the date and time and the message Register <register number>
saved is displayed.
Example
*SAV 1
Range 1-16 from front panel, 1-128 from SCPI
7.3.4 Edit Register Names
You may enter a custom name for any of the Registers, to help you remember what
you are using that state to save. To do this, press the Name field for the register you
want to rename, which displays the onscreen alpha keyboard. Press Done on this
keyboard when you are done editing.
The maximum number of characters for a register name is 30. If you delete all the
characters in the custom name, it restores the default (time and date).
