3. WVC Anritsu MS2711 HHSA Logfiles
3.1 Overview
Summit WMScanner positions measurement data based upon an X,Y,Z
coordinate system. Since most receiver manufacturers do not support such a data
collection scheme, the WVC logfile format was created. The WVC logfile format
provides a receiver independent method for collecting and storing measurement data.
The WVC logfiles, identifiable by their .wvc file extension, are created by Summit
WMScanner automatically during real-time measurement data acquisition and may be
very easily imported and exported between different drawings. These files are located in
the “measured” subdirectory of the current workspace.
3.2 WVC Anritsu MS2711 HHSA Logfile Format
WVC logfiles created while recording measurements from an Anritsu MS2711
unit are tab-delimited ASCII text files. The logfile consists of two main sections: a
Header section and a Data section. The Header section presents basic information
regarding the measured data, and is necessary for Summit WMScanner to properly
process the logfile when importing the file. The Data section includes the position
coordinates, data values, and other information associated with each measurement data
point.

Version Line [Line 0]
The initial line of the WVC Logfile is used to indicate the file format version.
Currently only one version of the file is supported, version 1. On this and all other lines,
the end of line is designated by a standard carriage return/line feed.
