Saving a Waveform to File. When you push the To File side menu
button, the oscilloscope changes the side menu contents. The
following table describes these side menu items for saving data to a
disk file.
Side menu button Description
Internal File Format Sets the oscilloscope to save waveform data to disk
in internal waveform save file (.isf) format. This
format is the fastest to write and creates the
smallest-sized files. Use the internal waveform
format if you intend to recall a waveform and store it
into reference memory for viewing or measuring.
Spreadsheet File Format Sets the oscilloscope to save waveform data to disk
as a comma-separated data file compatible with
most spreadsheet programs.
Mathcad File Format Sets the oscilloscope to save waveform data to disk
in Mathcad format. Use this format if you intend to
import the waveform data into Mathcad software.
