15.10.2: Scope Trace Files
The Scope Tool can save trace data in Copley Controls scope files (.sco files) that can be
opened later with the CME 2 Trace Viewer. Simultaneously, a version of the same trace is
stored in a comma-separated text file (.csv) and a tab delimited file (.txt), either of which
can be opened with a spreadsheet application such as Microsoft Excel (or other
programs) for mathematical analysis. The format of the .csv and the .txt file is the same:
Column 1: time
Column 2: Trace Channel 1
Column 3: Trace Channel 2 (if used)
Column n: Trace Channel n (if used)
NOTE: By default, scope files are saved in the ScopeData folder in the CME 2 installation
folder. For instance, c:\Program Files\Copley Motion\CME 2\ScopeData. Use these
procedures to save and view trace files:
Generate the trace you wish to save.
In the Oscilloscope window, click the Save to Disk icon.
When prompted, enter a File Name. If needed, navigate from the default ScopeData
folder to another folder where you wish to store the file.
Click Save to save the .sco, .txt, and .csv files in the same folder and close the screen.
