Section 8. Working with Data Files on the PC
Close the Run window. If you wish to save this parameter file for future
reports, choose FILE | SAVE. The file will be saved with a .PAR extension.
8.2.3 Split Parameter File Entries
8.2.3.1 Input Files
The name of the Input File is entered in the space to the right of the Browse
button. The default directory is the working directory for Split (if the default
installation directories were chosen, this will be c:\campbellsci\splitw). If the
input file is not in the default directory, use the Browse button to find the input
file.
In LoggerNet, mixed array datalogger files are stored in a simple comma
separated ASCII format; tabled-based datalogger files are stored in TOA5 (a
comma separated format with headers). Split can process Input files from
other software, but they must be formatted in Comma Separated ASCII, Final
Storage (Binary) Format, Field Formatted ASCII (Split default output format),
Printable ASCII, Table Oriented ASCII (TOACI1 or TOA5) or Raw A/D data
(refer to special Burst Mode instruction in your Campbell Scientific datalogger
manual).
Files stored in Table Oriented Binary (TOB) format are converted to Table
Oriented ASCII files when Split uses them. The converter runs in the
background when you run Split to create the output file. You cannot use the
Data Label browser to select the columns of data from a binary file. If you
want to use the Data Label browser you can open the file first using View,
which converts the binary file to ASCII and saves it under a new name, prior to
processing it with Split.
