1. 6000 Series Oscilloscope User s Guide 333 8 Reference Binary Data bin The binary data format stores waveform data in binary format and provides data headers that describe that data Because the data is in binary format the size of the file is approximately 5 times smaller than the XYPairs format If more than one source is on you will save all displayed sources except math functions to a file When the oscilloscope is in the Peak Detect acquisition mode the minimum and maximum value waveform data points are saved to the file in separate waveform buffers The minimum value data points are saved first then the maximum value data points are saved Binary Data in MATLAB Binary data from the 6000 Series oscilloscope can be imported to The MathWorks MATLAB You can download the appropriate MATLAB functions from the Agilent Technologies web site at www agilent com find mso6000sw Agilent provides the m files which need to be copied into the work directory for MATLAB The default work directory is C MATLAB7 work Binary Header Format 334 File Header There is only one file header in a binary file The file header consists of the following information Cookie Two byte characters AG that indicate the file is in the Agilent Binary Data file format Version Two bytes that represent the file version 6000 Series Oscilloscope User s Guide Reference 8 File Size A 32 bit integer that is the number of byt

35. Zoom 252 The ability to pan move horizontally and zoom expand or compress horizontally an acquired waveform is important because of the additional insight it can reveal about the captured waveform This additional insight is often gained from seeing the waveform at different levels of abstraction You may want to view both the big picture and the specific little picture details The ability to examine waveform detail after the waveform has been acquired is a benefit generally associated with digital oscilloscopes Often this is simply the ability to freeze the display for the purpose of measuring with cursors or printing the screen Some digital oscilloscopes go one step further by including the ability to further examine the signal details after acquiring them by panning and zooming through the waveform There is no limit imposed on the zoom ratio between the sweep speed used to acquire the data and the sweep speed used to view the data There is however a useful limit This useful limit is somewhat a function of the signal you are analyzing In normal display mode with vectors connect the dots off you can zoom in to the point where there are no samples on the screen Obviously this is far beyond the useful limit Likewise with vectors on you can see the linear interpolation between the points but again this is of very limited value Zoom The screen will still contain a relatively good display if you zoom in horizontall
