File Management
Conventions
The arbitrary/function generator checks for available space on the USB memory 
before saving files, and displays a warning message if there is not enough memory 
for the files you are saving.
The arbitrary/function generator does not have the internal timer. If you create a 
file using the Edit menu of the instrument, the date and time information is dis-
played like “TEKAFG001.TFW     JAN 01 00:00 1980”. 
If a file is created by other tools such as ArbExpress software, the date and time 
information is displayed on the arbitrary/function generator screen.
