DIAdem Idea Exchange

Post an idea

When dealing with large TTL data log files (approximately 25 Gb or more) in DIAdem using BUS CAN converter, users have reported encountering freezing issues during the conversion process.

Furthermore, if you check the Task Manager, it may show that DIAdem is not responding, which typically implies that the software has crashed. This lack of feedback makes it challenging to determine whether DIAdem is functioning correctly.

However, despite the apparent freeze, the conversion process eventually completes successfully after approximately 30 minutes.

To improve the user experience, it would be beneficial for DIAdem to provide clearer feedback during large file conversions, such as a progress indicator or status updates. This would help users understand that the software is indeed working and prevent unnecessary concern about crashes.

Thanks in advance!

Many functions in DIAdem seem to be biased towards waveform channels, ignoring the classical ways of working with standalone numeric channels.

The ChnResampleFreqBased function returns waveforms when I think it should have the option to return standard numeric channels. My workaround is not to use it at all and to use the channel generation and linear mapping functions instead.

This obviates the need to reformat channels (wherein you also get a new X channel that you might not have wanted) and is less code. But why have to use two functions to get the same output that could have come from the one resampling function were it to have the option to provide numeric channels?

Regards.

Today I was trying to find the SCRIPT command for "Converting Numeric Channels into XY-Channels" and could not easily find it or record a script to find it. So two requests here: (1) when recording a script, output the script or have a message that says 'sorry!' and (2) update the help with the correct script functions, similar to the other channel conversion functions.

I tried to record a script, executing the ANALYSIS function "Channel Functions -> Channels <-> XY Channels", but nothing showed up in the recorded script.

Looking up the help reference for "Channels <-> XY-Channels" only shows how to display the dialog, Call SUDDlgShow("Main", ResourceDrv & "AnaChnToXYChn")

All of the other "channel conversion" help documents show how to do this in SCRIPT, for example, "Numeric Channels <-> Complex Channels" shows "

ChnConvertNumericToComplex", similar for the Numeric to Time, Waveform, etc. My proposal is below:

Script Call:

Call SUDDlgShow("Main", ResourceDrv & "AnaChnToXYChn")

Set Group = Data.Root.ChannelGroups(1)

Set XChannel = Group.Channels(1)

Set YChannel = Group.Channels(2)

Set YChannel.XRelation = XChannel
