The recalling State function must first verify the file is recallable in the current instrument by checking
the software version and model number of the instrument. If everything matches, a full recall proceeds
by aborting the currently running measurement, and then loading the State from the saved state file to as
close as possible to the context in which the save occurred. You can open state files from any mode, so
recalling a State file switches to the mode that was active when the save occurred. After switching to the
mode of the saved state file, mode settings and data (if any for the mode) are loaded with values from the
saved file. The saved measurement of the mode becomes the newly active measurement and the data
relevant to the measurement (if there is any) is recalled.
If there is a mismatch between file version or model number or instrument version or model number, the
recall function tries to recall as much as possible and it returns a warning message of what it did.
No Trace data is loaded when recalling a State File. Measurements that support
NOTE
loading of trace data will include a Trace key in the Recall menu and will load
State + Trace data from.trace files under that key.

The state of a mode includes all of the variables affected by doing a full preset. It not only recalls Mode
Preset settings, but it also recalls all of the mode persistent settings and data if the mode has either. Each
mode determines whether data is part of mode state and if the mode has any persistent settings.
State also recalls all of the
each mode.

Advisory Event "Recalled File <file name>" after recall is complete.
If the file specified is empty an error is generated. If the specified file does not
exist, another error is generated. If there is a mismatch between the file and
the proper file type, an error is generated. If there is a mismatch between file
version or model number or instrument version or model number, a warning is
displayed. Then it returns to the State menu and File Open dialog goes away.
Although the trace data is included in the .state file it is not recalled. Recalling
trace data is left for .trace files only for measurements that support recalling of
trace data. Errors are generated if the specified file is empty or does not exist,
or there is a file type mismatch.
