Exporting Data

You can export the data that has been acquired in memory to a MAT-file, the MATLAB Workspace, or other options.

To export the acquisition data:

1. Click the Export Data button in the Preview window to export the last acquisition that was logged to memory.

2. In the Data Exporter dialog box, select MAT-File or MATLAB Workspace in the Data Destination field. In addition, you can choose Image Tool or Image File for single-frame acquisitions or Movie Player for multiple-frame acquisitions. These three options are provided by the Image Processing Toolbox software.

3. In the Variable Name field, enter a name for the new variable, and click OK.

   

4. If you exported to the MATLAB Workspace, the dialog box closes and the data will be saved to the MATLAB Workspace.

   If you are exporting to a MAT-file, the Export to MAT-File dialog box opens. Select the save location and type a file name, and then click Save.

   If you exported to Image Tool, Image File, or Movie Player, the frame(s) acquired immediately open in that tool.

Note that this export is to a MAT-file, the MATLAB Workspace, or one of the tools mentioned in step 2. To export image data to an AVI file, use the disk logging feature on the Logging tab of the Acquisition Parameters pane. For more detailed instructions about disk logging, see the Help for the Logging tab. (Click that tab to see the topic in the Help pane.)
