Header Form
SEASAVE can write a user-input descriptive header to the data file, which is
useful in identifying the data set.
To set up the header, click Configure Outputs. In the Configure Outputs dialog
box, click the Header Form tab.
Select the desired Header Choice and enter the header or header prompts.
Click OK or click another tab in Configure Outputs.
Notes:
• A header is automatically included
in the data (.hex) file and in the
header (.hdr) file. The header
includes software version,
sensor serial numbers, instrument
configuration, date and time of start
of data acquisition, etc. There can
be up to two date/time listings in the
header. The first, System Upload
Time, is always the date and
time from the computer. The
second, UTC Time, is the date and
time from an optional NMEA
navigation device.
• The .hdr file has the same path
and file name as the data file. For
example, if the data file is test.hex,
the header file is test.hdr.
If Prompt for Header
Information was selected
above, these user prompts
will appear to left of blank
fields for user to input
information at start of data
acquisition.
If Include Default Header
Information in File was
selected above, this would
be all the user-input
information in the file.
Select how header information is to be included:
• Prompt for header information - User will be
prompted to fill out header form at start of data
acquisition. Only lines with text prompts on
them will appear. Completed header, along
with system time, instrument type, and serial
numbers, will be written to beginning of data
file and also output to file with same name as
data file but with .hdr extension.
• Include Default Header Information in File -
User will not be prompted to add any header
information at start of data acquisition. User-
defined default header form will be written as-
is to beginning of data file and also output to
file with same name as data file but with
.hdr extension.
• Don’t Include Header Information in File –
User-input header information will not be
added to data file or placed in .hdr file.
