Saving and Printing Data

7

•ASCII XY data file - This creates a file of comma-separated variables for each displayed channel. If the oscilloscope acquisition is stopped, then data records greater than 1000 points can be written. This format is also suitable for spreadsheets.

•BIN data file - This creates a binary file with a header, and data in the form of time and voltage pairs. This file is much smaller than the ASCII XY data file. If the oscilloscope acquisition is stopped, then data records greater than 1000 points can be written.

•ALB data file - This creates a file in an Agilent proprietary format which can be read by Agilent logic analyzers.

Choosing save settings
