LOADING A DATA FILE

88 views 0

When you open the tool you will be prompted to load a logger file to analyse.



Locate the folder where you store your downloads.

Select the format from the available options: MDF or DAT for files in MDF format, EBL or ETL for files produced by the ECT display.

Click on the file name and then click open.

The tool now opens a channel window giving you the option to load all recorded data channels or to select individual channels – by default all channels are selected.

Click OK to load the selected channels.



The channel grid opens together with a main graphic display.

First time the Charting Tool opens it will display all files as default.

If you change any channel data, for example scaling or colours, these settings are saved when you exit Charting Tool.

All files are displayed in a main single segment large strip chart and an overview window at the bottom of the screen.



On the left is shown the default channel list with access to recorded data. In this window you can change the colour of each channel, it shows the minimum and maximum channel values and gives access to change the minimum and maximum displayed channels.
