:SAVE:WAVeform[:STARt]
Syntax
:SAVE:WAVeform[:STARt] {<file_spec>}
Description
Saves the waveform data to the external memory in "*.wfm" format.
Parameter
Name
Type
Range
Default
<file_spec>
ASCII String
<file_spec> includes the file storage location and
the filename with a suffix. Its length cannot
exceed 64 characters. If the USB storage device is
inserted into the USB HOST interface of the rear
panel, the storage location is E:\; if inserted into
the USB HOST interface of the front panel, the
storage location is D:\. For example, E:\123.wfm
--
Remarks
If the specified storage location already contains a file with the same filename, the original file will be
overwritten.
:SAVE:REFerence[:STARt]
Syntax
:SAVE:REFerence[:STARt] <file_spec>
Description
Saves the reference waveform currently stored in the oscilloscope to the external memory in "*.ref" format.
Parameter
Name
Type
Range
Default
<file_spec>
ASCII String
<file_spec> includes the file storage location and
the filename with a suffix. Its length cannot
exceed 64 characters. If the USB storage device is
inserted into the USB HOST interface of the rear
panel, the storage location is E:\; if inserted into
the USB HOST interface of the front panel, the
storage location is D:\. For example, E:\123.ref
--
Remarks
Before using this command to save the reference waveform file, send the :REFerence:SAVe command
to save the reference waveform of the current reference channel, and send the :REFerence:DISPlay
command to enable the REF function. otherwise, this command is invalid.
If the specified storage location already contains a file with the same filename, the original file will be
overwritten.
DS4000E does not support running a command to save the reference waveform file to the internal
memory for now. If required, save the file by performing the save operation on the front panel of the
oscilloscope.
