In these examples, the current instrument setting is stored in the file test.savrcltxt in the directory /var/user/..

Storing and Loading Current Settings
  1. Store the current setting in an intermediate memory with the number 4. This setting can be called using command *RCL and the associated number of the memory, for example *RCL 4.

    *SAV 4

  2. To store the settings in a file in a specific directory, specify the complete path.

    MMEM:STOR:STAT 4,"/var/user/test.savrcltxt"

  3. To store the settings in a file in the default drive, set the default drive and specify only the file name.

    MMEM:CDIR '/var/user/'*SAV 4

    MMEM:STOR:STAT 4,"test.savrcltxt"

  4. Load the file test.savrcltxt in the user directory.

    MMEM:LOAD:STAT 4,'/var/user/test.savrcltxt'

  5. Activate the instrument setting of the file test.savrcltxt.

    *RCL 4

Working with Files and Directories
  1. Read out all files in the specified directory.

    MMEM:CAT? '/usb/user'

    Response: 127145265,175325184,"test,DIR,0","temp,DIR,0","readme.txt,ASC,1324","state.savrcltxt,STAT,5327","waveform.wv,BIN,2342"

    the directory /usb/user contains the subdirectories test and temp as well as the files readme.txt, state.savrcltxt and waveform.wv which have different file types.

    Tip: To query only the subdirectories of the current or specified directory, perform:
    MMEM:DCAT? '/usb/user'
    Response: 'test', 'temp'
    To query only the number of subdirectories in the current or specified directory, perform:
    MMEM:DCAT:LENG? '/usb/user'
    Response: 2

  2. To query the number of files in the current or specified directory, perform:

    MMEM:CAT:LENG? '/usb/user'

    Response: 3

  3. Create a new subdirectory for mass memory storage in the specified directory.

    MMEM:MDIR '/usb/new'

  4. Copy the file state to a new file.

    MMEM:COPY '/var/user/state.savrcltxt','/usb/new'

  5. Rename the file state.

    MMEM:MOVE 'state.savrcltxt','state_new.savrcltxt'

  6. Remove the test directory.

    MMEM:RDIR '/usb/test'
