4.4 Starting/Stopping Recording, and Saving
Measured Data
This section explains how to start recording and save measured data to external storage
media.
For an explanation of these functions, see section 1.5.
Procedure
• Starting Recording (memory start)
Press START/STOP. The internal memory icon in the status display section changes
from the icon that indicates that there is no memory sampling to the icon that indicates
memory sampling.
• If you are recording display or event data in Free mode, recording will start.
• If you are recording event data in a triggered mode (Single or Repeat), the MV will
enter a trigger-wait state.
• Activating the Trigger to Start Recording
This operation can be performed while the MV is in a trigger-wait state. The MV will
display “Waiting” in the status display section.
Activating the Trigger Using Keys
This operation can be performed when you are recording event data in a triggered
mode (Single or Repeat) and you have set the trigger so that it can be activated with
key operations.
1. In Operation Mode, press FUNC.
The function menu appears.
2. Press the Trigger soft key.
Recording begins.
Activating Triggers with Events (The event action function must be set.
See chapter 7.)
Recording will start when an event occurs.
• Saving Automatically
Automatic saving takes place when Auto save is set to On (see section 4.2 for
details).
Data is saved to the CF card.
Leave the CF card in its slot. During memory sampling, measured data in the internal
memory will be automatically saved to the CF card.
When you are not using Media FIFO, if the external storage media cannot be saved to
due to a lack of free space or some other problem, unsaved data will be saved along
with the current data the next time that data is automatically saved.
Using Key Operations to Save Display or Event Data during Memory
Sampling
Data is saved to the CF card.
This operation can be performed when you are recording display data or when you
are recording event data in Free mode. This operation saves the unsaved measured
data in the internal memory to the CF card.
* If you perform this operation when the Auto save setting is Off, the data in the internal
memory will be saved as an individual file.
1. In Operation Mode, press FUNC.
The function menu appears.
2. Press the Save display or Save event soft key.
The display or event data will be saved to the CF card.
