7.2 Recall

:MMEM:LOAD:TRAC:REG TRACE1,2

Notes When you perform the recall, the recalling Trace function must first verify the file is recallable in this

instrument by checking instrument software version and model number, since it includes State. If

everything matches, a full recall proceeds by aborting the currently running measurement, and loading

the state from the saved state file to as close as possible to the context in which the save occurred. You

can open .trace files from any mode that supports them, so recalling a Trace file switches to the mode

that was active when the save occurred. After switching to the mode of the saved state file, mode

settings and data (if any for the mode) are loaded with values from the saved file and the saved

measurement of the mode becomes the newly active measurement, and the data relevant to the

measurement (if there is any) is recalled

Once the state is loaded, the trace data must be loaded. The internal flags are consulted to see which

trace to load and the "To Trace" setting to see where to load it. Trace data is always loaded with the

specified trace set to View, so that the data is visible and not updating (so as not to erase the recalled

data). If the file is an "all trace" file, all traces are loaded with the saved data (to the original trace the

data was saved from) and set to View. Traces whose data is not loaded are restored to the update state

that existed when they were saved

After recall, the instrument exits the Recall menu and returns to the previous menu

Some Modes and measurements do not have 6 available traces. For example, Phase Noise Mode:

:MMEMory:LOAD:TRACe TRACE1|TRACE2|TRACE3,<filename>

Some Modes and measurements have more than 6 traces. For example, Realtime SA Mode:

ALL,<filename>

7.2.3.1 Recall To Trace

Lets you select which Trace to recall to. Not all Modes have the same number of

available traces. The default is the currently selected trace, selected in this or any

other menu with Trace selection. If you have selected ALL, then that remains

selected until you specifically change it to a single trace, regardless of the trace

selected in the Trace menu.

If the .trace file is an "all trace" type, ToTrace is ignored, and the traces each go

back to the trace from which they were saved.

7.2.3.2 Register 1 thru Register 16

Selecting any one of these register buttons causes the specified trace(s) and the

state of the currently active mode to be recalled from 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.
