•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.
