Reading and Ploting MIT BIH ECG data

[sedaaa]

hi 

i get a some ekg data from mıt bıh database. ı want to display this data with waveform chart but i can't. can anyone help me ?

Most likely the data is in the form of an array.  For arrays of data graphs make more sense than charts. Charts are intended for data coming in one point at a time.  Is there a specific reason why you need a chart.

I've found this, but you need the biomedical toolkit for it: http://www.ni.com/example/31561/en/

plus this site seems to have a guide on the file format: http://physionet.org/physiotools/wag/wag.htm

Read my first post in this thread. In it I show how I was able to read a similar file.

The .dat extension does not define anything. It is a generic extension used by many programs for saving data in many different formats. To use a .dat file you must know what format was used to create it.

You should not need the toolkit to simply read the file and plot the data.

First, determine how to read the file and convert the data to an array of numbers. Then we can help with the plotting.
