To save a trace as a CSV:

1) Insert USB stick into the USB port on the front panel

NOTE: The format of the USB stick must be FAT32

2)   Press STORAGE > Set BROWSER to DIR. You can press the button next to the Browser label to toggle the selection.

NOTE: The spectrum analyzer uses binary files (*.trc) and cannot use CSV files (*.csv) natively. CSV will not be available as a valid format if you are trying to save the file to the local drive (D:)

3)   Use the scroll wheel to select Mobile Disk (E:)



4)   Change File Type to Trace and press the back arrow to get back to the storage screen



5)   Set Format to CSV



6)   Press Save, use the keypad to write a filename (I use numbers, they are faster), and press OK
