Display the Disk menu.

Choose Disk Utilities.

Make sure that the disk does not contain any infor-
mation that you want. Formatting the disk takes
about a minute.

Go back to the main Store and Recall menu.

Display the Data Save menu.

Now we need a file name.

[ALT] lets you enter the letter characters printed
below each key. The numbers function as normal.

Type a file name such as DATA1 (or any legal
DOS file name) and turn off the ALT mode.

This saves the trace data which is displayed on
the active display to disk using the file name speci-
fied above. If the entered file name has no exten-
sion, then the extension .85T is appended to the
file name.

All stored data points in the selected trace are
saved. Only the trace in the active display is
saved. In this case, only trace 1 (X) is saved, even
though the other traces have data stored.

In addition to the data, the instrument state (most
lock-in parameters, scan parameters, and the
active trace definition) is stored.

Let's change the display to show another trace.

The other traces are stored in the buffer and can
be displayed at any time.

This displays trace 2 (Y) on the chart so we can
save it also.

Display the Disk menu.

Choose the Data Save menu.

Save trace 2 (Y) using a new file name. This way
you can have multiple files in the disk catalog.

Use the file name DATA2 (or any legal DOS file
name) and turn off the ALT mode.
