Chapter 10
Output on File
The operating system of the measuring receiver supports the file system FAT32.
In certain operating conditions this permits to save copies from the LC display and from the
graphics screen as .BMP file for documentary purposes. The bitmap format works in an
uncompressed way, i.e. without losses. As media a USB stick and/or the internal flash disk may be
used.
10.1
Hardcopy from the LC Display
Here the current content of the LC display can be stored as .BMP file.
By selecting the menu item
→
HARDCOPY
→
LCD
→
->BMP-FILE
a window opens for
entering the file name.
Figure 10-1 Hardcopy of the LC display content on a USB stick
By the keys
←
and/or
→
the cursor can be moved. By the numeric keyboard up to 20 characters
for the file name can be entered.
The standard file name or a file name entered before is automatically incremented in its index
during each saving process such that even several files can be saved one after the other without
having to change the file name manually each time and without running the risk that already saved
data will be overwritten.
Via
FLASHDISK
or
USB-STICK
the destination medium is preset. If the file name is completely
edited, the cursor can be moved by pressing
ENTER
to the
START
field. After activating the
ENTER
key again, the content of the LC display (at the time before pressing the
key) is
written into a .BMP file with the name entered before. In the above example this means the file
DEMO_002.BMP is generated.
10.2
Hardcopy from the Graphics
Here a copy of the current graphics screen (e.g. Analyzer) can be saved as .BMP file. By selecting
the menu item
→
HARDCOPY
→
GRAPHIC
→
->BMP-FILE
the input window for the file
name opens. If
+LCD
is also selected, the device adds the content of the LC display to the .BMP
file.
The keys ← and/or
→
are used to move the cursor. By the numeric keyboard up to 20 characters
for the file name can be entered.
The standard file name or a file name entered before is automatically incremented in its index
during each saving process such that even several files can be saved one after the other without
having to change the file name manually each time and without running the risk that already saved
data will be overwritten.
