traces for the full set of S-parameters; the '<trc_name>' is ignored.
If no path is specified the analyzer uses the directory 'C:\Program
Files\Rohde&Schwarz\Network Analyzer\RecallSets'.
UNFormatted – Unformatted data export specified by the second optional
parameter
FORMatted – Formatted data export (for *.csv and *.dat files only)
If the first optional parameter is omitted, the command stores unformatted data.
COMPlex – Complex values (real and imaginary part)
LINPhase – Linear magnitude and phase
LOGPhase – dB-magnitude and phase
If the second optional parameter is omitted, the command stores complex data.
POINt – Decimal separator: point
COMMa – Decimal separator: comma
If the third optional parameter is omitted, points are used.
SEMicolon – Field separator: semicolon
COMMa – Field separator: comma
TABulator – Field separator: tabulator
SPACe – Field separator: space
If the fourth optional parameter is omitted, semicolons are used.
– (the default export format is UNFormatted)

Stores all data traces in the specified channel to a trace file. Corresponds to Export Complex Data and
Export Formatted Data with options "All Traces of Active Channel" or "Export All Channels" enabled.
Traces are created using the CALCulate<Ch>:PARameter:SDEFine... command.
As *.s<n>p Touchstone files (<n> = 1, 2, 3, ...) are intended for a complete set of <n>-port S-
parameters, export to this file type is only possible if the active channel contains the full set of <n>
2
traces.
Export of multiport channels with balanced ports is also not supported for this file type. Use
MMEMory:STORe:TRACe:PORTs to create multiport Touchstone files for incomplete sets of <n>-port S-
parameters or with balanced ports.
Renormalization rules
Renormalization is NOT performed! The exported values are always based on the reference impedance of
the physical ports.
For one-port Touchstone files, the Reference resistance written to the file header depends on the current
renormalization mode MMEMory:SETTings:RENorm:MODE:
– if set to AUTO, the analyzer either uses the common reference impedance if unambiguous, or 1 Ohm
otherwise as described in the help of the "Export Complex Data ..." menu command.
– if set to EXPLicit, the analyzer uses the specified reference impedance
MMEMory:SETTings:RENorm:RIMPedance.
For multiport Touchstone files always a Reference resistance of 50 Ω is used.
