L-Series is connected to the PC, hardware configuration
data remains unchanged.

Save present settings to disk setup file. If no setup was
loaded previously, the File Save As... dialog box will
appear prompting the user for a name to save the setup
under. If a setup file was opened previously, the new
settings will be used to overwrite the same setup file. To
avoid this, use the File Save As... menu instead.
Save present settings to disk setup file. A 'File Save As...'
dialog box will appear prompting the user for a name to
save the setup under.
Closes the LSGUI program. The IEEE-488 interface is
released and all program elements are unloaded from the

ALT-F4 on the keyboard.
