File Utility

5.1

Starting the File Utility

The File Utility performs the following four functions on the data file or report file that the

DAQLOGGER creates.

Merge:

Merges the files that are continuous in time to a single file.

Divide:

Divides a single file into several files.

Convert:

Converts the data to Excel, ASCII, and Lotus1-2-3 formats.

Restruct.: Merges the files once and then divide the file using new conditions.

The extensions for the applicable files are indicated below. Applicable files differ for

the Merge, Divide, Convert, and Restructure operations. See the explanation of each

operation.

.mld: Data file created by the Logger of the DAQLOGGER.

.rbi: Binary report file created by the Report Software of the DAQLOGGER.

Each operation is carried out by specifying the input file or directory (source file or

directory) and the output file or directory (save destination file or directory). If “Directory”

is specified, all the files in the selected directory that match the conditions are applicable.

The process information is displayed in the status display section during execution.

The source files are not affected by the Merge, Divide, Convert, and Restructure

operations.
