3. Destination - Click to show the available memory traces when saving

to memory.

4. Touch inside the Trace Title data entry control to change the default

name of your waveforms (if desired).

CAUTION.

You can change the name but not the sequence

number. If you use a name ending with a number instead of a

letter, the instrument may truncate the number. This is because, by design,
the first waveform is automatically numbered 0, the second 1, and onward.
For example, if you want to use waveform name XYZ32 but it is not
preceded by waveforms XYZ0 through XYZ31, the waveform is renumbered
with the next in sequence. If you need to use a number in your waveform's
name, append an alpha character at the end of the number: XYZ32a, for
example.

5. If you are saving to a file, touch the Data Format control and select a

format type.

Binary - saves the file to Teledyne LeCroy's binary file format.
This format is documented in various Remote Control Manuals
for Teledyne LeCroy Oscilloscopes. Selecting Binary results in the
smallest possible file size, and is recommended if you plan to
recall waveforms to Teledyne LeCroy instruments.

NOTE:

Binary files can be converted to ASCII using Teledyne LeCroy

utilities such as ScopeExplorer or WaveStudio.

ASCII -Text file (.txt extension).

MATLAB - Text file compatible with MATLAB (.dat extension).

Excel - Text file compatible with Excel (.csv extension).

MathCad - Text file compatible with Excel (.prn extension).

Word - Available when selecting the Binary format, specifies the
samples in the output file are represented with 16 bits. Always
use this option unless Byte mode is pre.

Audio to save your waveforms into the .wav format.

WaveML - . XML output, used for persistence traces.
