13.5 Saving Screen Image Data
Contents to be saved
In the HP-GL and PS format, the following types of screen image data are not saved.
• Snapshot waveforms
• Soft key menu and rotary knob menu
• Messages (except “Stopped” and “RUNNING)
In the TIFF and BMP format, data will be saved exactly as in case of the short copy. Refer
to page 10-4 in the User’s Manual IM701510-01E for more details.
Data size when saving
In case of saving a V-T Waveform, with two waveforms and grid displayed:
HPGL : approx. 25Kbyte TIFF : approx. 30Kbyte
PS : approx. 70Kbyte BMP : approx. 30Kbyte
Checking the free space on a medium
Refer to page 13-3 for a description of this procedure.
Entering a file name
The following points must be kept in mind when entering a file name.
•A file name must always be specified;
• Up to eight characters can be entered;
• All the characters on the keyboard can be used. However, the following file names cannot
be used due to MS-DOS restrictions;
AUX, CON, PRN, NUL, CLOCK
• The same name cannot be assigned to different data files of the same data type.
(Overwrite inhibit).
Points to not when using data saved in Post Script format
There is no problem printing out data saved in PostScript format on a PostScript printer.
However, if the PostScript data is used in a file created by DTP application software, the
waveform image will probably not appear on the computer’s screen. Instead a gray box
indicating the size of the image will probably appear.
CAUTION
Never turn OFF the SCSI device or remove the disk (media) such as a MO or a
PD while the access indicator of the SCSI device is lit. Otherwise, damage to
the SCSI device or the disk may result.
