Data File Converter (DAQCvt)
Options for data format conversion
DAQCvt provides three data format options.
-st : text file with scaled data
The data in hexadecimal format is scaled to engineering unit (volt-
age, ample, etc.) according to the card type, data width, and data
range, then written to disk in text file format. This type is available
for the data accessed from continuous AI operation only.
-sb : binary file with scaled data (float)
The data in hexadecimal is scaled to engineering unit (voltage,
ample, etc.) according to the card type, data width and data range,
then written to disk in binary file format. This type is available for
the data accessed from continuous AI operation only.
-bt : text 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 chan-
nel information, the raw value is handled to get the real data value.
This type is available for data accessed from continuous AI and DI
operations.
The default option for data format conversion is -st.
Options for separator in text file
The data separator in the converted text file may either be a
space, tab, or comma.
-sep0 : add space as separator
-sep1 : add Tab as separator
-sep2 : add comma as separator
The default option for data format conversion is -sep0.
Options for Title/Head in text file
If you do not want to add the title/head at the beginning of the file,
add the -nohead option.
After specifying the input filename, output filename, and the
options in the command line, DAQCvt converts the file and saves
it into the default location.
