Memory SequenceSMIQ2.28 Memory SequenceIn the memory-sequence operating mode the instrument automatically services a list with storedinstrument settings. Memory locations 1 to 50, which are loaded using SAVE and whose stored settingsare called either separately using RECALL or automatically and subsequently in the SEQUENCE mode,are available.The list is continuously serviced from the beginning to the end with a continual index. The order of thememories to be passed through is arbitrary. Each setting can be assigned a freely selectable dwell time.The dwell time determines the duration of the setting, its minimal value is 50 ms, its maximal value60 sec.The list is divided up into 3 columns for list index, memory location number (Memory) and dwell time(Dwell). The beginning of the list has index 1.Table 2-35MEMORY SEQUENCE; Example of a listIndex Memory Dwell001 09 50.0 ms002 02 50.0 ms003 01 75.0 ms004 10 75.0 ms... ... ...Up to 10 sequence lists can be created. The total number of possible list elements is maximally 256.I.e., a list can have 256 entries at the most, or less if several lists have been created.Each list is identified by a separate name and selected via this name. A detailed description how toprocess the lists can be found in Section 2.2.4, List Editor.Note:Frequently changing the level in the operating mode MEMORY SEQUENCE can stress themechanically switched attenuator. The attenuator is also actuated when AM is switched on oroff. For this reason we recommend that you make use of the non-interrupting level setting asmuch as possible and that you use the setting AM 0% instead of switching AM off.1125.5555.03 2.406E-9
