Saving Waveform Files
You use the Save Wfm menu (SAVE/RECALL Action = Save
Wfm) to save the specified waveform to file name TEKnnnn.CSV, or
to reference memory. The module saves waveform data to files as
comma-separated values (.csv format), which is an ASCII text string
that lists the time (relative to the trigger) and voltage values for each
of the 2500 waveform data points. You can import .csv files into many
spreadsheet and math analysis applications.
