USB 1.1.
By connecting the instrument to a USB storage device, you
can save data you’ve created to the connected device, as
well as read data from the connected device.
Formatting USB storage media

inserted, a message may appear prompting you to format
the device/media. If so, execute the Format operation (page
123).
To protect your data (write-protect)

connecting/disconnecting the device too often. Doing so may result in
the operation of the instrument “freezing” or hanging up. While the
instrument is accessing data (such as during Save, Delete, Load and
Format operations), do NOT unplug the USB connector, do NOT
remove the media from the device, and do NOT turn the power off to
either device. Doing so may corrupt the data on either or both devices.
