Saving (Writing)
1. Saving the settings you’ve edited
If you’ve edited a program and would like to use that edited program again 
in the future, you’ll need to save (write) it. Likewise, if you’ve edited settings 
in the GLOBAL–USR.SCALE pages, the changes you made will be lost if 
you turn off the power before saving (writing) them.
Be sure to save (write) any edited settings that you want to use again.
Any changes that you make by editing a program will be lost if you 
turn off the power or switch to a different program before saving (writ-
ing).
Never turn off the power while data is being written. Doing so may 
destroy the data.
