Hardcopy
The image on the screen can be output to a file. Use a hardcopy file to make reports
with a desktop publishing (DTP) application software running on PC, or output
those files to a printer using a PC. You cannot connect a printer directly to the
instrument.
Initiate hardcopy function by pushing the HARDCOPY button on the front–panel
or entering the GPIB command. You can select either BMP, TIFF, BMP COLOR
or TIFF COLOR for the file formats. Select the hard disk, floppy disk, or a remote
computer file system for the file output destination. The file size is approximately
150 Kbytes for TIFF format and 300 Kbytes for other formats.
Hardcopy Settings
Specify the hardcopy format and the output destination you needed before running
a hardcopy.
1. Push UTILITY (front–panel)!System (bottom) to display the hardcopy
setup screen. See Figure 3-57.
ls Lists the all files in the current working directory in the instrument.
put xxxx [remote–file] Transfers the file xxxx in your local computer and stores it in the
instrument file. The same xxxx name is used for a instrument file
if the remote file is not specified.
pwd Print the path to the current directory in the instrument
quit Terminates the ftp session and exits the ftp.

Commands Descriptions
NOTE. The ftp server in the AWG710&AWG710B Arbitrary Waveform Generator
does not support mget commands, or meta characters. For example, when you use
the put command with meta character as follows:
put ABS.WFM *.*
a file named *.* may be created in the internal disk of the AWG710&AWG710B
Arbitrary Waveform Generator.
This *.* file is not displayed on the AWG710&AWG710B Arbitrary Waveform
Generator file list. Access to a file created in this manner is not possible through
the front panel. Use GPIB commands to access such files.
In some FTP client software, you many not be able to use these commands.
