Export

The Export command is sent to the analyzer to exercise the Export CSV menu option to export existing frames. This command does not require capture hardware to be connected. The command format is:

“Export;file=<path>;[mode=<mode>;][tab=<technology:layer>]”

For “path”:

  • If the export path represents just a file name, the configured log directory will be prepended.

  • The file extension must be “.csv” for the Export command.

Valid values for “mode” are:

  • 0 – Wait for frame compilation and filtering to complete, default

  • 1 – Do not wait for frame compilation to complete

It is important to understand that if the “mode” parameter is not specified or has a value “0” and the analyzer is analyzing frames, then the Export command may wait indefinitely.

The tab currently selected on the Frame Display is what gets exported. A specified tab can be selected using the optional Tab= “<technology>:<layer>” where the layer name generally matches the tab names in Frame Display.

Export Technologies

Valid values for “technology” are:

  • Classic" – Classic baseband

  • "LE" – Low Energy baseband

  • "802154" – 802.15.4 baseband

  • "logic" – Digital logic signals captured by the analyzer

Export Layers

Valid values for “layer” are listed in the following table. It should be noted that this list could be incomplete and that there are additional layers available to feature license holders.

Response: “EXPORT;<status>[;Reason=<reason>]” where a reason will only be supplied for FAILED status.

Example – “Export;file=export1.csv;tab=Classic:SCO/eSCO”

The following data sources support the listed logic layers. These are:

  • Sodera: "Logic Signals"

  • X240: "Logic Signals 1" or "Logic Signals 2"

  • X500/X00e: "Logic Signals 1", "Logic Signals 2", or "Logic Signals 3"

An example automation server command for exporting the logic layer with the “Logic Signals 1” tab using the X240 data source is:

Example – "Export;file=logic_layer.csv;mode=0;tab=Logic:Logic Signals 1"

If your capture file does not contain the specified layer name OR you make an error in entering the layer name, then the export command will export the currently selected layer. In other words, there will not be an error notification for this case.

Export can cause the analyzer to spend considerable time generating the file.
