170 Keysight InfiniiVision 2000 X-Series Oscilloscopes User's Guide

12 Acquisition Control

Be sure to set the Length control to capture enough points to accurately represent

the captured data. When the oscilloscope is busy saving multiple segments,

progress is displayed in the upper right area of the display.

For more information, see “To save CSV, ASCII XY, or BIN data files" on page 232.
