Trace (+State) - Agilent Technologies X Series Manual

System Functions
Recall
The Recall State function does the following:
• Verifies that the file is recallable on this instrument using the version number and model number.
• Aborts the currently running measurement.
• Clears any pending operations.
• Switches to the mode of the selected Save State file.
• Sets mode State and Input/Output system settings to the values in the selected Saved State file.
• Limits settings that differ based on model number, licensing or version number.
• Makes the saved measurement for the mode the active measurement.
• Clears the input and output buffers.
• Status Byte is set to 0.
• Executes a *CLS

Trace (+State)

Selects Trace as the data type to be recalled. Trace files include the state of the mode they were saved
from as well as the trace data, with internal flags to indicate which trace the user was trying to save,
which may include ALL traces. They are otherwise identical to State files. Recalling
cause a mode switch if the file selected is not for the currently active mode.
Not all modes support saving of trace data with the state, and for modes that do, not all measurements do.
The Trace key is grayed out for measurements that do not support trace recall. It is blanked for modes
that do not support trace recall.
This key will not actually cause the recall, since the recall feature still needs to know from which file to
recall the trace and which trace to recall it into. Pressing this key will bring up the Recall Trace menu that
provides you with the options of where to retrieve the trace.
For quick recalls, the Trace menu lists 5 registers to recall from or you can select a file to recall from.
