Saving Waveforms and Setups

2. To recall a setup stored on disk, press From File (side). Then use the general
purpose knob to select the exact file from the resulting scrollbar list. Only
files with .set extensions will be displayed. Finally, press Recall From
Selected File (side) to complete the operation.
Recalling a setup will not change the menu that is currently displayed. If you recall
a setup that is labeled factory in the side menu, you will recall the factory setup.
(The conventional method for recalling the factory setup is described below.)
To reset your oscilloscope to the factory defaults:
Press SAVE/RECALL SETUP ➞ Recall Factory Setup (main) ➞ OK
Confirm Factory Init (side).
See Factory Initialization Settings, on page D–1, for a list of the factory defaults.
Sometimes you might use the oscilloscope to acquire waveforms that are
confidential. Furthermore, before returning the oscilloscope to general usage,
you might want to remove all such waveforms and any setups used to acquire
them. (Be sure you want to remove all waveforms and setups, because once they
are removed, you cannot retrieve them.) To use Tek Secure to remove all
reference setups and waveforms (does not affect mass storage disk):
Press SHIFT UTILITY ➞ System (main) ➞ Config (pop-up) ➞ Tek Secure
Erase Memory (main) ➞ OK Erase Setup & Ref Memory (side).
Executing Tek Secure accomplishes the following tasks:
H Replaces all waveforms in reference memories with zero sample values.
H Replaces the current front panel setup and all setups stored in setup memory
with the factory setup.
H Calculates the checksums of all waveform memory and setup memory
locations to verify successful completion of setup and waveform erasure.
H If the checksum calculation is unsuccessful, displays a warning message; if
the checksum calculation is successful, displays a confirmation message.
