Last State
Sets to Last. When the analyzer is powered on, it will put all modes in the last state they were
Power On
in prior to when the analyzer was put into Power Standby and it will wake up in the mode it was last in
prior to powering off the instrument. The saving of the active mode prior to shutdown happens behind
the scenes when a controlled shutdown is requested by using the front panel power
using the remote command SYSTem:PDOWn. The non-active modes are saved as they are deactivated
and recalled by Power On Last State.
An instrument could never power up for the first time in Last.
NOTE
If line power to the analyzer is interrupted, for example by pulling the line cord
plug or by switching off power to a test rack, Power On Last State will not work
properly.

SYST:PON:TYPE LAST
Power on Last State only works if the user has done a controlled shutdown
prior to powering on in Last. If a controlled shutdown is not done when in
Power On Last State, the instrument will power up in the last active mode, but
it may not power up in the active mode's last state. If an invalid mode state is
detected, a Mode Preset will occur. To control the shutdown under remote
control use the :SYSTem:PDOWn command.
