7. Change the file Save as type if necessary.
8. Click Save.
Your first file is saved as Risetime000.ext, where ext is the file type extension. The next file will be Risetime001.ext,
and so on.
If Count reaches 999, Tektronix suggests that you change the base file name, for example, Risetime1 on the next save. Your
next file will then be saved as Risetime1000.ext. You will receive a warning message if you are going to overwrite any
existing files with the same name.
TIP. Use the auto-increment file name feature to save a series of setups, exported images, waveforms, and measurements.
Recall a reference waveform
Use this procedure to recall a reference waveform from a file:
1. Click Recall on the toolbar, or select Recall from the File menu.
2. Under Recall What, select Waveform.
3. Select the waveform you want to recall; then select the Destination Ref <1– 4>.
4. Click Recall to load the waveform into memory.
You can use reference waveforms for measurements, math functions, or other uses. Simply select the reference waveform from
the Channels Selector on the individual control windows.
NOTE. When you recall a reference waveform from a file, a new file containing waveform data is created in C:\Users\[Username]
\Tektronix\TekScope\Waveforms. The file is named TDS_REFn.WFM, where n is the reference waveform number. This file is
deleted when the reference waveform is deleted.
Using waveforms
Save a waveform
Use the following procedure to save a waveform or waveforms to a reference location, the instrument hard drive or DVD drive, or
a third-party storage device.
1. Make sure the waveform to be saved exists. The source must be a channel, an active math waveform, or an active
reference waveform. Display the waveform along with the setup before you save it.
2. From the File menu select Save As; then click Waveform.
3. From the Source drop-down list, select the waveform that you want to save. Only available waveforms are displayed in the
list.
4. Under Save in: Oscilloscope Memory, select the location Ref <1–4>; then click Save to save your waveform to that
reference location. Any data in the existing reference will be overwritten.
5. To save the waveform to a file, select the location to save from the Save in drop-down list. The default location is C:
\Users\[Username]\Tektronix\TekScope\Waveforms.
