How to prepare Block Structure data for D/A output from DIAdem

[jingli]

Dear Sir:
I'm trying to do D/A convert from DIAdem and DAQCard6062E,whereas when I located the data file to be output, and specified the channel, DIAdem gave the Error as following:

--Error-- DIAdem
Error from DAC simulation input file(read data file)
The DAT file'...'must have Block Strucure!!!

What I want to know is how to prepare or how to save my *.tdm file to a file of Block Strucure.

Thank you very much

Hi jing,

i think there´s no chance to do online reading with tdm-files.
There are two ways to solve your problem:

1. Using the "channel simulation block" to read data out of DIAdem data cache.

2. Store as DAT.File named in 8.3-notation using block-format.
I don´t know the english menue-items, but all you need is in the Files.menu selection "DAT-Files".

By the way:
If you change the setting in the "datastorage-dialog" from "data area" to "file" for recording data, you´ll get a "playable" DAT-File.
