Managing measurement results
You can export the measurement data, for example to store it on an external memory
device or copy it to a different computer for further analysis with different software. You
can also restore data that you have taken at some point and review it in the applica-
tion.
1. Select "Options" > "Recording".
2. Define the default directory in which to save the results in the "Result Folder" input
field.
For each measurement, the R&S
QAR creates a folder that contains the measure-
ment data.
3. Select "Autosave" to use the auto save functionality..
When you are using the autosave feature, the R&S
QAR automatically stores the
results after each measurement.
Tip:
You can always save the measurement results deliberately with the keyboard
shortcut Ctrl-S or from the "File" menu.
