Compression Softkey
This is lossless data compression using run length encoding as specified by
the selected file format. Because compressed files take up less disk space,
the default selection is on. You would turn compression off if you need to see
the raw data, or if the importing application cannot properly interpret the
compressed data.
Rendering Softkey
The B/W selection is black text on a white page, just like a hardcopy printout.
Most applications use the black text on a white background. Gray
(grayscale) is shades of gray on a black background. Green is shades of
green on a black background just like the scope screen.
To File Softkey
The to file softkey selects a file name for a disk operation. You may
notice that the file name in the to file softkey matches the highlighted file
name in the directory listing. You can use the entry knob to scroll through
the list of files, or you can press the to file softkey to enter a file name.
Pressing the to file softkey displays another menu that allows you to spell
out the name of the file you want. The entry knob positions the cursor over a
letter or number in the character list. Press the the top softkey to enter that
character into the filename field. The filename can contain up to eight
characters. The backspace softkey backspaces over characters in the file
name, while the delete softkey deletes characters from the file name.
You do not need to add a file extension because the oscilloscope
automatically assigns a file extension depending on the type of file selected.
LIF files do not have a file extension, but they have descriptions which
appear in the directory listing.
e TIF for TIFF files
e .PCX for PC Paintbrush files
e .EPS for encapsulated PostScript files
