Processing .SPE files (from Princeton Instruments) with LabView

[fgm]

Thanks again, I plugged in the missing .vi and (as you'd guessed) it doesn't work step/glue files.  I've downloaded the spe specifications from

PI's ftp site......I'll see what I can do.

hi, I'm currently using this program "simplified data acq svi" to control the Princeton Instrument camera and Winview but I have found that when the value in any of the array element is above 32767 (as shown in winview)  it does not register the real value into the intensity graph or when i output it in a spreadsheet (in labview) even though the data is stored in a 32 bit long integer (i suppose). is there any way to resolve this? thank you very much.

Can you give more information on how you are using LabVIEW With Winview? It would also be helpful if you could post a sample VI showing what you are doing. 32 bit long integers should be able to hold values up to 2,147,483,647. Are you sure that you are not using a 16 bit integer? That would explain why you are getting undesirable results after 32767.
