FTP Procedures

CAUTION
Avoid using the *OPC? or *WAI commands to verify that the FTP process has been
completed. These commands can potentially hang up due to the processing of other
SCPI parser operations. Refer to the SCPI Command Reference.
NOTE
If you are remotely FTPing files and need to verify the completion of the FTP process, then
query the instrument by using SCPI commands such as: ':MEM:DATA:', ':MEM:CAT', '*STB?',
'FREQ?', '*IDN?', 'OUTP:STAT?'. Refer to the SCPI Command Reference.
There are three ways to FTP files:
• use Microsoft's Internet Explorer FTP feature
• use the PC's or UNIX command window
• use the signal generator's internal web server following the firmware requirements in the table
below
Using Microsoft's Internet Explorer
1. Enter the signal generator's hostname or IP address as part of the FTP URL.
ftp://<host name> or
ftp://<IP address>
2. Press Enter on the keyboard or Go from the Internet Explorer window.
The signal generator files appear in the Internet Explorer window.
3. Drag and drop files between the PC and the Internet Explorer window
Using the Command Window (PC or UNIX)
This procedure downloads to non–volatile memory. To download to volatile memory, change the file
path.
