10 File and Data Management
The R&S SMA100B uses files to save all instrument data. The instrument allows you to
store and to load instrument settings, and to import and to export user data for pro-
cessing in another instrument or later. Finally, you can create a screenshot of the cur-
rent settings displayed on the screen and save it as a file.
This section focuses on the functions provided for managing of user data files and cov-
ers the topics listed below.
