12 Data Management
The R&S ESW allows you to store and load instrument settings, as well as import and
export measurement data for analysis later. Finally, you can store or print the measure-
ment results displayed on the screen.
General storage and import/export functions are available via the toolbar. Some special
storage functions are (also) available via softkeys or dialog boxes in the corresponding
menus, for example trace data export.

12.1 Restoring the Default Instrument Configuration (Pre-
set)
When delivered, the R&S ESW has a default configuration. You can restore this
defined initial state at any time as a known starting point for measurements. This is
often recommendable as a first step in troubleshooting when unusual measurement
results arise.
Factory default configuration
The factory default configuration is selected such that the RF input is always protected
against overload, provided that the applied signal levels are in the allowed range for
the instrument.
Alternatively to the factory default settings, you can define user-specific recall settings
to be restored after a preset or reboot, see "To recall settings automatically after preset
or reboot" on page 270.
To restore the default instrument configuration for all channels at once
► Press the [PRESET] key.
After you use the [PRESET] function, the history of previous actions is deleted, i.e. any
actions performed previously cannot be undone or redone using the [UNDO/REDO]
keys.
Remote command:
