Chapter 3 Front-Panel Operation
Storing and Recalling Operating States
Storing and Recalling Operating States
You can store up to three different operating states in non-volatile memory. This also
enables you to recall the entire instrument configuration with just a few key presses
from the front panel.
The memory locations are supplied with the reset states from the factory for front-
panel operation. Refer to the description of *RST command, starting on page 96 in
chapter 4 for more information. The following steps show you how to store and recall
an operating state.

The storage feature "remembers" output range selection, the limit value settings of
voltage and current, output on/off state, OVP and OCP on/off state, and OVP and
OCP trip levels.
