Saving oscilloscope setup information
You can save the oscilloscope internal settings to an internal memory location (setup 1–10) or to an external file on the USB
drive. A setup file contains most of the oscilloscope settings, including vertical, horizontal, trigger, cursor, and measurement
parameters. It does not include communications information, such as GPIB addresses. You can then use the setup data to
