WAD: Only WAD files generated post 2006 firmware can be converted.
The import process shown in Figure 14:25. FlowTarcker1 Import allows the user to import
a single or multiple Original FlowTracker files at a time,
• Import File – Select the .wad file you would like to convert. The ASCII exports
must be associated with this file, or you will receive an error message during the
data import. The resulting file converted will have the same file name, but the
.wad extension will be replaced with .FlowTracker1.ft.
• Import Folder – Select the folder containing multiple .wad files you would like to
convert. The tool will look within subfolders recursively to convert all .wad files
with associated ASCII exports. If the ASCII exports do not exist in the same
folder(s) as the .wad files, an error message will appear. The resulting files
converted will have the same file name, but the .wad extension will be replaced
with .FlowTracker1.ft.
The .FlowTracker1.ft file can now be opened in similar method as the FlowTracker2, .ft
file.
