●
Which scans and how many scans are stored in a file?
●
Does the scan from the file suit the current setting?
The following section should cover the most important possibilities.
5.53.1.7 Appending Measurement Scans to Existing Scans
parameter field "New Scan " = Append
parameter field "Alive / Hold " to Alive.
[Single ] triggers a measurement and appends the new scan to the existing scans.
5.53.1.8 Measurement Scan Replaces an Existing Scan
parameter field "New Scan " = Replace
parameter field "Alive / Hold " to Alive.
Use the [Next Scan ] key to select the scan to be replaced.
[Single ] triggers a measurement and replaces the selected scan with the new scan.
5.53.1.9 Importing Scans from a File and Appending to Existing Scans
parameter field "New Scan " = Append
Parameter field "Alive/Hold" to Hold.
If the parameter field "Alive/Hold" is on "Alive" and a measurement is in progress (sin-
gle measurement not yet finished or continuous measurement), any attempt to import a
file is ignored and a message is issued.
If the parameter field "Alive / Hold " is on "Alive" and a measurement is finished, a
scan / multiple scans can be imported from a file and appended to the existing scans.
If an import is allowed, it largely depends on the content of the source file to be impor-
ted whether and how the operation proceeds.
A file will be imported only if the basic units from the file match the "Y-Source" setting,
or if the unit is allowed in the graphic subsystem. For example if "Y-Source " = Funct
Ch1 and the set analyzer measurement function = "RMS", a trace file with the basic
unit Volt is suitable. A trace file with the basic unit % would be ignored and an error
message would be issued.
When loading a trace file it must be clearly specified which trace is to be loaded from
the file (File:
Trace A or File: Trace B).
This choice is not needed when importing. Provided the basic units are suitable for the
current setting, the file content defines what and how much will be imported:
●
If only Trace A or only Trace B is activated in "Y-Source" and the file to be imported
contains only one trace and it does not matter whether it is Trace A or Trace B,
then this trace is imported.
