 Wave Saving   

Tip:  

Whatever the 

Type

 of save menu is set, you can save the waveform by just pressing 

the 

Copy

 panel button in any user interface. If the 

Storage

 of the save menu is set as 

"

External

", you should install the USB disk. Please refer to the contents below to 

install the USB disk and name the file to be saved.   

Save the current screen image: 

The screen image can only be stored in USB disk, so you should connect a USB disk 
with the instrument.   

1.

 

Install the USB disk

: Insert the USB disk into the "1.

 USB Host port

" of "

Fig. 

4-3

 Right side panel". If an icon 

  appears on the top right of the screen, the 

USB disk is installed successfully. The supported format of the USB disk: FAT32 
file system, cluster size cannot exceed 4K. Once the USB disk cannot be 
recognized, you could format it into the supported format and try again.   

2.

 

After the USB disk is installed, press the 

Save

 panel button, the save menu is 

displayed at the bottom of the screen.   

3.

 

Press the 

H1

 button, the 

Type

 menu will display at the left of screen, turn the 

knob to choose

 for Type.   

4.

 

Press the 

H4

 button, the input keyboard used to edit the file name will pop up. 

The default name is current system date. Turn the 

knob to choose the keys; 

press the 

knob to input the chosen key. The length of file name is up to 25 

characters. Choose and press the 

Enter

 key of the keyboard to end the input and
