I used an ASCII "0" to terminate each string. However "0" is not hex "00" it is hex "30", this may be the whole problem. Does Dplot need to see ASCII "0" or hex "00"? How can I send an ASCII "Null" from the keyboard?

OK I created my VB program which adds the header to my binary file, that works OK. However I tried many different values for each variable, but it still won't open in Dplot! Any clues as to what am I doing wrong? My test wave is basic - 4096 points, 16 bit resolution, 65 µs sampling.

Thanks! That will be very helpful! As it turns out, there are actualy 8 waveforms in the file. I will simply make 8 header files that point to each start address.

I am programing with VB6. My recorder outputs two waveforms at a horizontal rate of 270 seconds, and two others at 280 ms. All are included in the same file. Can I do two horizontal rates on the same plot? Or do I need to separate the file?

Nicolet .wft format

I have a recorder that outputs a binary file with the .wft extention. I believe it to be a modified version of the Nicolet format. The header of this file does not represent the Dplot header shown in the help file, therefore I need to reconstruct this header. Can you please tell me which fields are ...

I have been using that equation, and others. I just realized that I had the "Specify Extents" previously check. It all works as expected now! Thanks for the prompt reply!

Converting seconds to Real time

David,
Lets say I have an xy plot with the x axis from 0 to 10800 seconds (3 hours). I would like to show my x axis as 6:00:00 AM to the extent of 9:00:00 AM. I see in the help file, that a 6 refers to 6:00 AM, a 9 refers to 9:00 AM but how do I change to those extents without Dplot thinking those ...
