Waveform File Format
The tables below illustrate the waveform file format.
The Cycle 1 through n data format is shown in this table.
Waveform Data Name Data Type Description
File ID char[8] File ID (Int16)+ Waveform Identifier(Int48)
typedef struct
{
unsigned short sFileID; //this id is used for user selection,1…256
unsigned short sWaveformID; //the Waveform id highest 2 bytes
unsigned long lWaveformID; //the Waveform id Lowest 4 bytes
}WAVEFORM_ID;
