Save to file
Enter the filename to save the measurement data to. Double-tap the filename to open
the file selection dialog box.
By default, the filename has the prefix "Measurement_".
You can define a pattern for automatic naming in the "Autonaming" tab, see Chap-
ter 4.8.1, "Autonaming", on page 127.
The default directory is:
C:\Users\Public\Documents\Rohde-Schwarz\RTP\Measurements
"Save"
Saves the measurement data in the selected file.
"Save As..."
Opens the file selection dialog box and saves the measurement data
to the selected file. See also Chapter 12.5, "File selection dialog",
on page 509
".bin/.xml/.csv"
Selects the file format.

12.2.6 Saving and loading waveform data
You can save the data of a channel, math or reference waveform to an .xml, .csv,
or .bin file. The data export of several channels into one file is also possible. Files
in .bin format can be reloaded to the R&S RTP as reference waveforms.
Instead of a complete waveform, you can also save a part of it, limited by a previously
defined zoom, cursor lines, measurement gate or user-defined time values.
To save waveform data quickly, you can add the "Save Waveform" icon to the toolbar
and use it for saving. The icon does not work for saving actions that are started with
"Start export" (data logging and multiple history waveforms).
It is also possible to save history data to file. Furthermore, you can save a "live record"
of a running RUN Nx SINGLE acquisition to one data file.
For details on waveform save/recall settings, see Chapter 12.2.2, "Waveform settings",
on page 488.
The following procedures are described:
●
