• Import Data... calls up an Open File dialog to load a memory trace from a trace file.
• Export Data... calls up a Save As... dialog to store data or memory traces to a trace file.
• Export Formatted Data... calls up a Save As... dialog to store data or memory traces with their
current trace format and stimulus values to a trace file.
Import Data...
Calls up a dialog to load a memory trace from a trace file. Trace files are ASCII files with selectable file
format.
The loaded trace data is used to generate a memory trace which is coupled to the active data trace.
Import Data corresponds to a standard Open File dialog with an additional checkbox:
• Import Data to New Mem qualifies whether the loaded data overwrite the active memory trace
(box unchecked, analogous to Data -> Mem) or whether they are used to generate a new memory
trace (box checked, analogous to Data -> New Mem).
Trace file import and import conditions
On loading data from a trace file, the analyzer displays a list box to select one of the traces stored in the
file. The example below shows a Touchstone (*.s2p) file, containing all four 2-port S-parameters; see
Trace File Formats.
