The file consists of the header containing important scaling parameters and a data sec-

tion containing the trace data. For details on an ASCII file see Chapter 6.3.1.6, "ASCII

File Export Format", on page 399.

This format can be processed by spreadsheet calculation programs, e.g. MS-Excel. It

is necessary to define ';' as a separator for the data import. Different language versions

of evaluation programs may require a different handling of the decimal point. It is there-

fore possible to select between separators '.' (decimal point) and ',' (comma) using the

"Decim Sep" softkey (see "Decim Sep" on page 200).

If the spectrogram display is selected when you perform this function, the entire histo-

gram buffer with all frames is exported to a file. The data corresponding to a particular

frame begins with information about the frame number and the time that frame was

recorded. For large history buffers the export operation may take some time.

5.4.2 Markers

5.4.2.1 Controlling Markers

The markers are used for marking points on traces, reading out measurement results

and for selecting a display section quickly. The R&S ESR provides 16 markers per

trace.

Figure 5-9: Marker types

All markers can be used either as markers or delta markers. The marker that can be

moved by the user is defined in the following as the active marker. Temporary markers

are used in addition to the markers and delta markers to evaluate the measurement

results. They disappear when the associated function is deactivated.
