Loading Waveform Data to the Waveform Memory
4
Explanation
Before carrying out the procedures in this section, a CF card or USB memory containing
waveform data must be inserted in the VB8300. For the procedure of inserting/removing
the CF card or USB memory, see section 10.1.
To load the waveform data from a CF card or USB memory to the waveform memory, set
the directory to CF card or USB memory (show “/compact/ (or /usbmem)” in the
Selection box) and select the data file.
Loadable Data Formats
The data in the following formats can be loaded.
• Sequence list file (.seq extension)
• Waveform data file
Raw data (.raw extension)
ASCII data (.csv extension)
Binary data (.bin extension)
Note
•
When loading waveform data to the waveform memory, the loading process is faster using
raw data because the data size is smaller.
•
If the ASCII data does not contain RMS values or information about the number of points, the
loading process may take longer than 10 minutes.
•
The sequence list file contains the path and name of the waveform data files. It does not
contain the actual waveform data. If the waveform data files do not exist at the registered
path destination (relative path), an error occurs when the sequence list file is loaded.
