setup.recall()
Example
To recall factory default settings:
setup.recall(0)
To recall the user-setup (internal):
setup.recall(1)
To recall a user saved setup stored in a file named KEITHLEY_3730 on a USB flash
drive:
setup.recall("/usb1/KEITHLEY_3730.set")
setup.save()
Function
Saves the present setup as a user-setup.
Usage
To save to the internal memory location, send no parameters with function:
setup.save()
To save to the USB flash drive:
setup.save(location)
location: Setup location to save. Use the format "/usb1/<filename>" where <filename>
is the name of the desired file contained on a USB flash drive.
Remarks
This function overwrites any previous values with the present setup. When saving a
setup to an attached USB flash drive, specify "/usb1/" at the start of the filename. The
.set is appended to the filename. Any specified file extension other than .set will
generate errors.
Valid destination filename examples:
setup.save('/usb1/mysetup')
setup.save('/usb1/mysetup.set')
Invalid destination filename examples:
setup.save('/usb1/mysetup.stp.')
-Invalid extension due to ending period followed by no letters for extension.
setup.save('/usb1/mysetup.txt')
-Invalid extension. Use .set or do not specify (no period)
setup.save('/usb1/mysetup.txt.set')
-invalid extension because 2 periods specified (mysetup_txt.set would be
correct).
NOTE The setup files saved to the USB flash drive will always have an extension of
.set.
Example
To save the present setup as the internal user setup:
setup.save()
To save a setup to a file named KEITHLEY_3730 on a USB flash drive:
setup.save("/usb1/KEITHLEY_3730")
