Save/Recall Waveforms
The Save Waveform function saves trace data to either an internal memory location, or to a text or binary
format file (.trc). The source waveform can be any trace; for example, a channel, math function, or a
waveform stored in another memory. Use Recall Waveform to restore these previously saved waveforms to
the display.
NOTE: Only .trc files saved in binary format can be recalled into the oscilloscope.
By default, trace files are saved to the MicroSD card, although you can choose another location, such as a
USB drive. The file name is autogenerated from the <source trace><trace title><number in sequence>
(e.g., C1test000001).
Save Waveform
Choose File > Save Waveform from the menu bar.
SAVE WAVEFORM TO MEMORY
1. Touch Memory.
NOTE: When Memory is selected, only Source and Destination controls are shown on the Save Waveform
dialog. When File is selected, many more controls are available.
2. Choose the Source trace you are saving.
3. Choose the Destination location.
4. Touch Save Now!
SAVE WAVEFORM TO FILE
1. Touch File.
2. Choose the Source waveform.
3. Optionally, touch Trace Title to change the root file name of your waveforms.
CAUTION. Numbers at the end of this name are truncated because the instrument appends a
number to each file. Place numbers at the beginning, or place an alpha character after the
number (e.g., XYZ32a).
