To save a trace list in ASCII format

Some screens, such as file lists and trace lists, contain columns of
ASCII data that you may want to move to a computer for further
manipulation or analysis. You can save these displays as ASCII files.
While a screen capture saves only the data shown onscreen, saving the
display as an ASCII file captures all data in the list, even if it is
offscreen.
1 Insert a DOS-formatted 3.5-inch disk in the flexible disk drive.
2 Set up the menu you want to capture, or run a measurement
from which you want to save data.
Remember that only displays that present lists of textual data can be
captured as ASCII files.
3 Select Print and choose Print Disk from the pop-up menu.
4 Select the Filename field and specify a file name to which the
data will be saved.
5 Select ASCII (ALL) from the Output Format field.
If the current display contents can not be saved as an ASCII file, this
option will not be present in the Output Format field.
6 Select Flexible Disk from the Output Disk menu, then select
Execute.
