Title: Cant save math trace data using 3062L PC DSO.
Edited by schnittker@yaho at 2020-4-6 05:53

I am interested if anyone has figured this out.
I want to save math data on my 3062L PC Oscope.
I can turn on the math function, and the red trace appears on the screen as it should. Then I tried using the "Save Data" button in the math setting, and saved a file. A message comes back saying "Save Data OK !"
When I then open the .txt file to look at the saved data, there is only a message that says MATH OFF.

If I try saving data using the save button (instead of the math settings) the drop down does not list the math as a channel I can save.

Analyzing FFT data is an important feature to the work I am doing, and so I would really need to be able to save the FFT data, not just view it on the screen.

I can "Save data" but when I open the file, instead of saved data, there is just a message saying "MATH OFF" inside the .txt file.

This seems like a software bug.
Any suggestions?

Please check the version number.

Scope version 1.0.2
FPGA version: changes each time I check. Most of the time is says 182, but it also gave 32, and ffff

I updated to the newer software V2.0.8
But it seems there is no difference.

I have tried to save math data in two different ways.The first way is from the Math Setup window.


Which then prompts me to save the file.


After choosing a file name and location and hitting "save", and the software reports that it saved the file OK.


But then when I open the file, it only shows the message "MATH OFF"



The second way I have tried is from save button, but as you can see, the math channel is not in the dropdown list.

But the sofware will allow me to choose the blank option for the channel, and when I save a file that way, I get the same results as from the Math Setup window. Again, inside the .txt file is a message that says "MATH OFF".

Please try it with this software, I am not sure if this matches your board. This product has been discontinued for a long time, so I do n’t have a machine to test it.

WangShuang, The second link you posted is the exact same file name and file size as the one posted the day before.
I downloaded and tried it anyway, and same result.
Did you intend to post a different software?
Thanks for your help

wangshuang,
Thank you for the 1.0.7 version.
I tried it, and unfortunately it is the same as 1.0.4 and 2.0.8 and does not save Math data.
I am happy to keep trying if you have other versions that might work.
Thank you for trying to help me.
-Mark
