Measurement (Data) Results
Some analyzers save a complete set of measurement results. Others save an individual trace.
For example, when you save data from an HP 3566A/67A frequency response measurement, the file
includes five measurement results (or measurement data): FRF, coherence, input power, output power,
and cross power. When you save data from an HP 35665A FFT measurement, the file includes only the
measurement data displayed in the active trace. In the SDF file, these are called ‘’data results.’’
Figure2-1. DataResults
If you want to recall FRF data from an HP 3566A/67A into an HP 35665A, use SDFTOSDF /D to select
the measurement data of interest from the HP 3566A/67A data. See the SDFTOSDF command in chapter
4 for more information.
The HP 35665A can read HP 3566A/67A data directly into the instrument, but it can read only the first
trace in the file with:
• 1st data result
• 1st row
• 1st column
From the HP 3566A/67A, the save trace command can be used to save a specific trace to disk.
