(Must be exact same model and firmware) Cloning allows you to program a generator at your desk using Quantum Data's VGM software and then easily and quickly transferring the information to other generators of the same model. You transfer (clone) the entire block of battery backed user memory (including video formats, custom test images and test sequences) from one generator to another using a suitable PC memory card.
The GPIB address switches are also read into memory if the generator goes through a full re-initialization for any reason. The IEEE-488 configuration descrip- tion of the generator is: SH1AH1T6TEØLEØSR1RL1PPØDC1DT1CØ Model 802 Series Quick Start Guide • 9 •...
