Saving And Sharing Data - Teledyne HDO8000A Getting Started Manual

Saving and Sharing Data

Use the oscilloscope File menu options to save and recall data. See the
HDO8000A Oscilloscopes Operator's Manual for more information on using
these features.
LabNotebooks
LabNotebooks are composite files (.LNB) containing setups, waveform
data, and screen image as they were at the moment of capture. Creating
a LabNotebook can be as simple as pressing the Print button as you
work. Flashback LabNotebooks to restore the oscilloscope to the exact
state it was in when the file was saved. Waveforms and tables are
displayed as they were for new analyses to be performed.
LabNotebook files can be edited, annotated and exported into a
preformatted HTML, .RTF, or .PDF report. They can also be extracted into
their component setup, waveform, and screen image files.
Setup, Waveform and Table Data
The current oscilloscope configuration can be saved to internal setup
panels or setup (.LSS) files and later recalled.
Waveform data can be stored to trace (.TRC) files and later recalled into
memories to restore the waveform display to the screen.
Table data can be saved to either ASCII (.TXT) or Excel (.CSV) files.
When multiple waveforms or tables are displayed, one command saves
All Displayed to separate autonamed files.
Screen Captures
The front panel Print button captures an image of the screen, which will
then be handled according to your chosen Print method (sent to a printer,
saved to an image file, etc.). Before printing or saving the capture, use the
drawing tools to annotate the image, same as with LabNotebooks.
You can also use the touch screen File menu to Save Screen Image.
File Sharing
If the oscilloscope is networked, LabNotebooks, reports, and other
user data files can be emailed directly from the instrument or saved to
accessible network devices.
Files can also be transferred to a USB drive through any of the host USB
ports. Stored user data files are located on the D: drive.
