Siglent 3021x - How do you take screenshot? doc is wrong.
« on: March 26, 2019, 12:15:38 am »
OK, I have just wasted 2 hours trying to decode the crap user manual.
When I follow the user manual for the "FILE" operations, or if I also look
at this webpage;  https://www.siglentamerica.com/operating-tip/save-file-ssa3000x/

then the only thing that happens is a get a screenshot of the entire FILE BROWSER window,
NOT of the spectrum analyzer trace and screen text.   I tried this multiple times, to external USB,
using half a dozen file names, and each time I get a full screen picture of the FILE BROWSER window
and not the analyzer trace screen.   Google was NOT my friend for this, nor was searching youtube.

They sure took great pains to make this less than obvious.
Help please?

Cheers,

SSA3032X latest FW V1.2.9.2a
In normal spectrum analyser display mode:
Insert USB drive and wait for USB drive icon to appear on top bar of display.
Press Save button (above encoder) and a box appears to give an option to change Save filename.
Press Enter to save file with a default filename.

Note: if saving to just one folder and not editing the filename (using default), the SSA3000X will automatically increment the default filename #.

Edit to add
Press File button and check Save Type is set to PNG for screenshots.
