OPEN/READ ATTACHED FILE

[Prof._Arne_Saknussemm]

Dear friends,

Anyone can read the attached file (. txt) with LabVIEW? Matlab can?

thanks

Looks like binary data. Do you have specs on the file format?

LabVIEW can read it too! 😄

Looks like a binary file, so we need to know the format. Who wrote the matlab code to read it?

[altenbach]

Try this... 😮

Dear Friend Knight of NI,

Excuse me my ignorance on LabVIEW.

With his tip, I developed the attached  .vi  to open the binary file (1.txt). Still does not work!!!  Any suggestions to improve?

I await your valuable help!!!

Thanks

[Taki1999]

Define work 🙂

altenbach's solution will open your file.

In order to decode it, we need to know how the file was encoded.  Without that information, we really can't go any further.

So, we eagerly await your help in identifying the file format 🙂

Dear Friend Taki1999,

The attached file (1.txt) is binary. Okay?

thanks

[Taki1999]

Not OK.

Dear Friend Taki1999,

The attached file (1.txt) is binary created by <Fill in the Blank> Program using <Fill in the Blank> Protocol where the first N bytes are header information and the packing of structure is X items of Y Bytes with Z endianess. Okay?

thanks

I asked this before, but why can't you simply show us the matlab code that can successfully read the file?

I am sure it can be translated to LabVIEW verbatim (well, that's probably the wrong word here. 🐵

(Also, why do you keep attaching the same 2.5MB file? Three times so far! Once is enough!)

Dear friend Taki1999

The answers will be answered to you SOON!

Thanks
