Printing, Plotting, and Saving Measurement Results
Saving Measurement Results
Saving in Graphical (JPEG) Form
Graphical measurement results can be saved in JPEG format and used as an illustration
in a text editor or desktop publishing application.
1
Up to eight traces may be saved in the
JPEG file. This is done by storing a measurement using and turning
on for each of the four channels.
1. Press .
2. Make sure that is displayed.
3. Make sure that is underlined. If it is not underlined, press the
softkey so that GRAPHIC is underlined.
4. Insert a 3.5-inch floppy disk in the network analyzer’s disk drive.
5. Press to save the display as a graphic in the JPEG format.
The graphic file may be retrieved from the floppy disk on personal computer and can be
imported into an application that accepts graphics in the JPEG format.
NOTE When saving measurement results graphically, make sure that no onscreen
measurement data is displayed as white. Since media color is often white, any
measurement data printed using white will not be visible.
You may change the analyzer to the factory default color settings by pressing
to correct this problem.
However, to maintain your current color settings (except white), check the
measurement color settings by pressing
. Press to check the remaining measurement
colors. To modify any of the measurement colors, select the measurement and
then choose another color from the list of colors that is displayed.
Instrument State Files
When an instrument state is saved to a floppy disk, some or all of the following files may be
produced. This depends upon which arrays are selected under the
softkey menu, and whether the selected save format is BINARY or ASCII. The “XX” part of
the file name (FileXX) refers to the number of the instrument state. The first instrument
state saved to any particular disk will be named “File00”, and each successive state saved
to that disk will be numbered “1” higher than the previous state (for example, “File01”and
“File02”).
Files with .i and .p File Extensions
The following two files (.i file and .p file) are always produced, except when
is selected. These files were separated to allow backward compatibility with older
instruments. The binary data contained in these two files is not meant to be read in an
external computer:
1. The network analyzer firmware is based in part on the work of the Independent JPEG Group.
