files.

Used to locate and open saved .dsc files.
Save [or Open] Multiple Data Set (.mds)
These two menu items provide a means of saving [or opening] function files. Time and auto-

channel pairs. The file extension is .mds.
Save [or Recall] Hardware Setup (.set)
These menu items provide a means of saving [or recalling] current settings and processing
conditions. In addition, .mds files can be used to recall setup conditions, because these file-
