11.3.2.1 Stored Data Types
The following types of data can be stored to and loaded from files via the "Save" dialog
box on the R&S FSW:
Table 11-1: Items that can be stored to files
Item Description
Current Settings Current instrument and measurement settings.
All Transducers All transducer factor files.
(Note: Restoring a saveset overwrites transducer factor files on the hard disk
that have the same name as those in the saveset. For more information, see
"Saving and recalling transducer and limit line settings" on page 626.)
All Traces All active traces.
All Limit Lines All limit line files.
Spectrograms Spectrogram trace data (only available if spectrogram display is currently
active).
11.3.2.2 Storage Location and Filename
The data is stored on the internal flash disk or, if selected, on a memory stick or net-
work drive. The operating system, firmware and stored instrument settings are located
on drive C.
Saving instrument settings in secure user mode
In secure user mode all data is stored to the SDRAM, and is only available during the
current session. As soon as the power is switched off on the R&S FSW, the data is
cleared (see Chapter 5.1.7, "Protecting Data Using the Secure User Mode",
on page 43).
Other storage locations cannot be selected in this mode.
The storage location and filename are selected in a file selection dialog box which is
displayed when you perform a storage function.
By default, the name of a settings file consists of a base name followed by an under-
score and three numbers, e.g. limit_lines_005. In the example, the base name is
limit_lines. The base name can contain characters, numbers and underscores.
The file extension dfl is added automatically. The default folder for settings files is
C:\R_S\INSTR\USER.
File name restrictions
File names must be compatible with the Windows conventions for file names. In partic-
ular, they must not contain special characters such as ":", "*", "?".
