Trace Export for VECTOR ANALYZER Mode
Section "Measurement Function Selection – TRACE 1 to 4 Key" has been extended for the function
ASCII EXPORT.
In vector analyzer mode, the ASCII EXPORT softkey stores the corresponding
ASCII
EXPORT
trace in a file with ASCII format. For measurement results that are output in written
text in tables (Symbol Table, Error Summary, Modulation Summary), this function
is not available.
Upon pressing the ASCII EXPORT softkey, a file name can be entered. The
default name is TRACE.DAT. Then the measured data of the trace are stored.
The function can be configured in the ASCII CONFIG submenu (see trace export
for analyzer mode)
Structure of the ASCII file:
The file consists of the header containing important measurement and scaling parameters and a data
section containing the trace data.
The data of the file header consist of three columns, each separated by a semicolon:
parameter name; numeric value; basic unit
The data section starts with the keyword " Trace <n> " (<n> = number of stored trace), followed by the
measured data in one or several columns (depending on measurement) which are also separated by a
semicolon.
This format can be read in from spreadsheet calculation programs, eg MS-Excel. It is necessary to
define ';' as a separator.
