Save Instrument State

Save the instrument state with an *.acpwps file extension.

To save the instrument state, click > Save Settings. To specify a different location or file name, select Save Settings As.

  • By default, the instrument state is stored in the "Documents" folder on your computer and files are organized by instrument type. For example, C:\Users\<user_name>\Documents\Keysight\PathWaveACSource\.
  • In order to save the state, the instrument must be connected and launched in the AC Source application window. If an instrument is not currently connected, the save operation is disabled.
  • If the instrument is currently acquiring measurements, the state of that instrument will not be saved. Stop the acquisition before saving.
  • The state of the instrument will not be stored if instrument communication is currently paused or has been lost.
  • Saving the instrument state does not store any measurement or trace data.
