cs5bin2ascii (PD-04.01) II. Page 2 of 5 Convert data to ASCII cs5bin2ascii is a program for creating text files of position- or amplitude-files (saved as binary data). The created files can then be viewed and edited with simple text editors or complex spreadsheet programs like excel. The conversion of the files is done non-destructive which means that for every source file a new text file with the same name but a “txt”-file extension is created (“0001.txt” for “0001.pos”).

For each pos- respectively amp-file in the source directory matching the source pattern a text file containing the equivalent data in ASCII-format will be created. The text file has the same name as the source file, just the file-extension differs (“txt” instead of “pos” or “amp”).

Once configured, the preferences are stored under “settings.xml” in the configuration directory of the application. At startup the program will always start with the settings of the last session. 1 2 3 4 Figure 4: The extended options tab-page Header The “Write column header to 'header.

Show file-header Since pos-, amp- and agd-files include a file-header-section containing file-version, number of channels, sampling frequency etc. in plain text and a data-section with binary data, it is inconvenient to open these files with a normal text editor to display the file-header-section.
