Greetings,
A student of the department I work came back from the UK with a binary
file containing measurement data. The file has the extention .dat but
is no diadem file and it contains no header. She says it was generated
with labview 3.1.1. and she was able to view the data with a program
called "graph data" that seems to belong to labview 3.1.1.
Optimistic as I am I thought it wouldn't be a problem to read the data into diadem 8.1 (LV 7.1 on win XP) but no way.
I can see some data but's all rubbish. The measurements consist of a
time value and than 8 voltage channels of wich some are not used (zero).
The data range is -5V till 5V and (not sure) resolution 16 bits and every 0.5 sec a sample, blockwise grouped
With a fileviewer I can see the time string and the 8 channels but
with the import header function in diadem I get scrap. Time flies and
values beyond 5V and below -5V
I searched the web for an old version of labview but did not succeed
but I'm also convinced that diadem 8.1 is capable of reading this file.
I only don't kow how.
Is there anybody outthere with a suggestion?
