The Save/Restore Menu
The Save/Restore menu lets you save and restore instrument output setup
information on both AWG mode and FG mode to a file. The setup parameters
when saving is included in a setup file. When you restore a setup file, a setting in
both AWG mode and FG mode will replace the contents of a setup file.
Setup file includes path information of the waveform file(s) to be set in the Setup
Window. When the setup file is saved in the same directory as the waveform
file(s), only waveform file name(s) are included in the setup file. Otherwise, the
setup file stores the drive and full path information for the waveform file(s).
So you cannot move these files to another directory and/or a drive unless they
are not stored in the same directory.
