DAQCvt provides three types of data format conversion.
File with scaled data :
The data in hexadecimal format is scaled to engineering unit (voltage, ample, …etc) according to the card type, data
width and data range and then written to disk in text file format. This type is available for the data accessed from
continuous AI operation only.
Binary file with scaled data :
The data in hexadecimal is scaled to engineering unit (voltage, ample, …etc) according to the card type, data width
and data range and then written to disk in binary file format. This type is available for the data accessed from
continuous AI operation only.
File with binary codes :
The data in hexadecimal format or converted to a decimal value is written to disk in text file format. If the original data
includes channel information, the raw value will be handled to get the real data value. This type is available for the
data accessed form continuous AI and DI operations.
The data separator in converted text file is selectable among space, comma and Tab.
If you want to add title/head which includes the card type information at the beginning of file, check the Title/Head box.
After setting the properties (File Path, Format, …etc) related to the converted file, you can push Start Convert button in
the Output File frame to perform the file conversion.
