4 You can press the Delete Character softkey to delete the current character and shift
the rest of the characters to the left.
5 When you select the Auto Increment option, the oscilloscope will add a numeric suffix
to your file name, and increment the number with each successive save. It will
truncate characters as necessary when the file name length is at maximum and more
digits are required for the numeric portion of the file name.
6 Press the Press to Save softkey to save the file.
Saving Waveform Trace and Oscilloscope Setup
When the Trace & Setup option is selected from the Format softkey, both waveform trace
and oscilloscope setup are saved to the USB mass storage device or the oscilloscope’s
internal memory. After saving, you can choose to recall the trace, the setup, or both.
The trace is saved with the file extension TIF and the setup is saved with the extension
SCP. These extensions can be seen using the File Explorer, but they do not appear when
using the file browser in the Recall Menu. When using Mask Testing, the mask data file is
saved also. Its extension is MSK.
Display Image and Waveform Data File Formats
Display image and waveform data files can be saved on a USB mass storage device, but
they cannot be saved to the oscilloscope’s internal memory.
Press [Save/Recall]&Save&Format to select a format.
You can save the display image in the following file formats:
• BMP (8-bit) image file — The screen image is converted to a smaller, lower
resolution bitmap file of the complete screen (including the status line and softkeys).
• BMP (24-bit) image file — This is a larger, high-resolution bitmap file of the complete
screen.
• PNG (24-bit) image file — This is an image file that uses lossless compression. Files
are much smaller than the BMP format.
You can save waveform data in the following formats:
• CSV data file — This creates a file of comma-separated variable values of all
displayed channels and math waveforms. This format is suitable for spreadsheet
analysis. Serial decode Lister data is also saved in CSV format. (See also page 417.)
