R&S AMIQ waveforms can also be loaded on the instrument, where they are converted
internally into an R&S SMBV waveform.
7.3.1 Tag Description
This section first describe the mandatory TYPE tag which identifies the file and is always
located at the start of the file. The rest of the tags used in the R&S SMBV are then
described in alphabetical order. Most tags are valid for all three file types. If a tag is valid
only for a single file type, e.g. only for a waveform, this fact is indicated in the description.

(mandatory, must be the first tag in the file)
The TYPE tag identifies the file as a valid R&S SMBV file. It must be present and must
be the first in the waveform. If a file of the same name already exists on the target medium,
it is overwritten.
Tip: R&S AMIQ waveforms can also be loaded on the instrument, where they are con-
verted internally into an R&S SMBV waveform.
