Saving Image Files
Image files can be stored in MViQ or a detachable device. The Quick-
Save feature stores a file with a default name and file type in a default
directory
(Click here to learn more about setting default file names,
types, and directories).
Alternatively, use the Save Options Menu.
1
– Perform a short press of this hard key to Quick Save the displayed
image in the default directory. A long press of this key opens the Save
Options Menu. Double pressing this key saves a Screenshot of the
display screen.
Note:
Screenshots are BMP image files of the display screen, do not contain
RVI data of any type, are stored in an automatically created subfolder titled
“Screenshots,” and are assigned the auto-generated image file name but
identified with the addition of the letters “ss.”
Note:
The DVD drive may not serve as either the default or alternative saving
location. Files must first be saved in a directory located in the instrument’s
memory or on a connected USB storage device. Files can later be copied and
pasted to optical media in an attached DVD drive.
2
– At all times, the intended saving location (in this case the Dev directory
located on the D drive) is listed here. After a file is stored, the status bar at
the top of the screen indicates “Saved.” The file name (described below) and
format are also listed.
Note: Each time files are pasted to the DVD drive, the optical media is auto-
ejected to avoid loss of data.
3
– While in the process of assigning an alternative name or destination for
the image file, the status bar at the top of the screen indicates “Saving.”
4
– Choose an alternative directory into which the file will be stored.
Note: Tap and open the target folder
5
– Tap

to complete the target directory selection.
6
– Select to Rename the file prior to saving. The virtual keyboard opens.
7
– Select to choose from numeric characters or symbols.
8
– Tap
Done
after typing the desired name.
9
– The status bar now indicates the new target directory (in this case,
TestImages) and the new file name (Trial 1).
10
– Tap
Save
to complete the saving process.
11
– The status bar now indicates that the file has been “Saved.”
