Format)
displayed.
NOTE
Data that has been saved in ASCII format cannot be recalled and used by the E4991A. To
recall data to the E4991A, save it in binary format. For details, see the section “Saving and
Recalling Measurement Data in Binary Format” on page 172.
To save measurement data in ASCII format:
Step 1.
Perform the measurement for which you want to save data.
Step 2.
Right-click to open the shortcut menu and select
Save/Recall
. Alternatively, you can just
press
.
Step 3.
Click the
Save Data

Step 6.
If you want to save the data to a floppy disk, insert the disk into the floppy disk drive.
NOTE
If you use the E4991A built-in floppy disk drive, use a 1.44 MB floppy disk in the DOS
format.
Step 7.
The current directory, including the drive name, is displayed in the top box. As shown in
Table 7-3 on page 169, navigate to the drive and directory where you want to save the file.
Step 8.
