:MMEM:STOR
Format :MMEM:STORe <String>[,{LOG|LIST|SETup|COMParator}]
Description Saves the instrument settings (including calibration/compensation), images on the LCD
stored in the volatile memory (clipboard) (images of the LCD when the
[Capture] key is
pressed), measurement data for statistical analysis, list measurement results, or the contents
of the setup table as a file. Contents to be saved depend on the extension of the file
specified (first parameter). However, you should specify the second parameter only if the
extension is “.csv”. The list below shows each extension and the corresponding contents to
be saved. (No Query)
.sta Instrument settings (binary format)
.bmp Images on the LCD
*1
(bitmap format)
.csv Comma-separated data for the following items (ASCII format)
• Measurement data for statistical analysis
*2
• List measurement results
• Contents of setup table
.dta Measurement data for statistical analysis
*2
(binary format)
When specifying a file on the floppy disk drive, you must specify “A:” at the beginning of
the filename. When specifying a directory name and filename, you must separate them
with a slash (/).
If a filename you specify already exists, note that the existing file may be overwritten by
the new file.
NOTE A file for instrument settings saved as autorec.sta is automatically recalled during
power-on of the 4287A.
Parameter First parameter: <String>
*1. If no image exists on the clipboard, the images on the LCD are stored on the clipboard when
the command is executed and then they are saved.
*2.In the ASCII format (extension “.csv”), up to 65,536 measurement data for statistical analy-
sis can be saved. If the frequency of data measurement stored on the volatile memory
exceeds 65,536, only the data of the first 65,536 measurements are saved and the remaining
data are ignored. In the binary format (extension “.dta”), there is no limit to measurement
frequency, and thus all of the stored measurement data for statistical analysis are saved.
