Analyzing the Results
Any of the following functions and features of the Oscilloscope can be used to help analyze the recorded
data:
1. The curves in the Chart Window may show correlations or anomalies. Use the
buttons and the Navigation Window to display more detailed portions of the curves.
2. The Last, Minimum, and Maximum columns in the "Curve Selection List" may provide useful
information.
3. Use the mouse and the Cursors to scan back and forth across the curves. Curve values will be
displayed in the "Curve Selection List".
4. Use the Properties → Display window to enable range validation for curves. This may make it easier
to locate "out-of-bounds" problems.
5. Create "derived" Curves. For example, a derived curve can be added that shows the difference
between two curves or the rate at which a curve is changing.
Export Curve Data into a txt file
Use the Export toolbar button to export the curve data to a standard text file. This file can then be used
by other programs to analyze the curve.
This will export all the curve data to a "comma-separated value" (.csv) file. This is a standard text file that
can be imported into spreadsheet programs and opened with normal text editors. The file will appear similar
to the following example:
Once imported into Microsoft Excel, it will appear similar to this:
