Agilent LA Module CSV text file 

After the file is opened by the Agilent LA software, the data can be exported through 

Export. Note that only the waveform file exported by the Module CSV text file is 

supported here. 

(You can find the option to export Module CSV Text File in Toolbar -> File -> 

Export... after opening .Ala file) 

2.

 

Tektronix TLA Data Exchange Format 

After opening the file by the TLA software, first click the File->Export Data... button 

after outputting the top of the List screen. Note that only the TLA Data Exchange 

Format is supported here. Change to TLA Data Exchange Format.
