7.3.8.1
Reference: ASCII File Export Format
Trace data can be exported to a file in ASCII format for further evaluation in other appli-
cations. This reference describes in detail the format of the export files for result data.
(For details see
Chapter 7.3.7.1, "How to Export Trace Data and Numerical Results"
The data of the file header consist of three columns, each separated by a semicolon:
parameter name; numeric value; basic unit. The data section starts with the keyword
"Trace <n>" (<n> = number of stored trace), followed by the measured data in one or
several columns (depending on the measurement) which are also separated by a sem-
icolon.
The results are output in the same order as they are displayed on the screen: window
by window, trace by trace, and table row by table row.

Markers
Markers help you analyze your measurement results by determining particular values
in the diagram. Thus you can extract numeric values from a graphical display.

Basics on Markers and Marker Functions
Some background knowledge on marker settings and functions is provided here for a
better understanding of the required configuration settings.
Markers are used to mark points on traces, to read out measurement results and to
select a display section quickly. R&S
FSPN provides 16 markers per display window. In
the Phase Noise application, markers across measurement windows are independent
from each other - thus you can move a marker in one window without moving it in
another window.
●
The easiest way to work with markers is using the touchscreen. Simply drag the
marker and drop it at the required position. When a marker label is selected, a ver-
tical line is displayed which indicates the marker's current x-value.
