12. File Formats
This section describes the various file formats of the files used by the
LSGUI program. Normally, there is no reason a user would have to access
these files other than from the LSGUI program itself. In this case, the file
formats are transparent and there is no need to know their details. In the
unlikely event that a user wants to manually edit any of these files, the
format needs to be known. This section provides this detailed information. As
a rule, we do not recommend ,however, that these files are edited. This
information is provided for completeness only. Editing files can result in the
LSGUI program crashing if incorrect files are created as a result of editing
operations.
The following file types used by the LSGUI program are covered in this
chapter :
•
Setup Files
•
Transient List Files
•
Data Files
•
Measurement Calibration Data Files
