2.1.5 Saving and Printing Data
The analyzer provides standard functions for saving measurement settings and for
printing the results. You can use these functions as if you were working on a standard
PC. Moreover you can export your trace data to an ASCII file and reuse it in a later
session or in an external application.
Data transfer is made easier if external accessories are connected to the analyzer or if
the instrument is integrated into a LAN. Refer to
