Storing Traces

When you store a trace, the instrument takes a copy of the trace record of
the selected trace. The trace record is always copied into the stored trace
location with the lowest available number, unless you select otherwise.

Use the following steps to store a trace:
Step 1: Create a stable trace on the display.
Step 2: Press the Store/Recall major menu button, and touch the
Store Trace selector in the major menu. See Figure 3 87.
Step 3: Observe the Set Next Sto: selector on the pop up menu. The
trace you store will be assigned this number. If you want to set this
number to one other than the next available, touch the Set Next Sto
selector and adjust the knobs to select a number. You can choose any
number between 1 (if no trace is currently stored) and 9999. You cannot
store a trace where another trace is already stored.
Step 4: All displayed traces are listed in the pop up menu. Touch the
selector that represents the trace you want to store.
The Store Trace pop up menu keeps track of the amount of non volatile
RAM available to store both traces and settings. This information is listed
under Free NonVolatile RAM". This number will decrease after you store
traces or settings, and increase after you delete traces or settings.
You can also use the Store All selector to store all the displayed traces as
separate stored traces. In this case, the Next Storage: notation tells you the
first storage number that will be used.
