To save and export data

If your record has been stopped because the recording time elapsed or because of a manual stop-command you have the possibility to evaluate and archive your data. Therefore you can find the necessary Scope View 2 menu under Run.

You can save your data as a svd file with Save Data. This is a data file were you can have a look at your record again in the TwinCAT Scope View 2.

If you open such a data file the options "Export to CSV" and "Export to Binary" are available, just as it is right after you have stopped the record. At both options a dialog appears were you can name a memory location. If you choose "Export to CSV" you can select between a .csv and a .txt file. You can find an example how to import a .csv file in the table-handling program in the next picture.
