Storage Type
Press Storage  Storage to select the desired storage type. The default is “Traces”.
The storage and recall descriptions of each type are as follows:
1. Traces
Save the waveform data in external memory in “*.trc” format. The data from all
active channels can be saved in the same file. At recall, the data will be
displayed on the screen directly. Trace files are binary files similar to reference
waveforms. They are intended to be transferred and viewed on similar model
scopes.
2. Waveforms
Save the waveform data in external memory in “*.wfm” format. The stored files
contain the waveform data of the four analog channels and the main setting
information of the oscilloscope and all the data can be recalled. Waveform files
are binary files that store the instrument settings and waveform data. They are
intended to be transferred and viewed on similar model scopes.
3. Setups
Save the settings of the oscilloscope in internal or external memory in “*.stp”
format. At most 10 setting files (from LocalSetup0.stp to LocalSetup9.stp) can
be stored in internal memory. The stored settings can be recalled.
4. Picture
Save the screen image in external memory in “*.bmp”, “*.png”, “*.jpeg” or “tiff”
format. You can specify the file name and saving directory and save the
corresponding parameter file (*.txt) under the same directory using the same
file name. The recall of image and reference files is not supported.
After seleting this type:
Press PicType to select the desired storage format.
Press Para.Save to enable or disable the parameter save function.
