Tc-08 blank data file

Post by Guest »

Hello

I recorded a data file using a tc-08 serial logger, connected to a dell mini 9, using a usb to serial connector. The PWL file will open and contains the correct number of readings etc, however the data tables are blank. The PWL file is large: 161Kb for 8190 samples on three channels, suggesting the data is there. Any suggestions on how to extract it from the data file. Important experimental data, whichh can not be repeated! Please Help!

Many Thanks

Eric

Was it possible to recover the file? I have very similar problems after laptop unplanned shutdown during recording data.

Cheers,
Daniel.

Hi

We can sometimes recover the files, so I would recommend sending it in (support@picotech.com). Could you also send an uncorrupted data file that was generated using exactly the same settings?

Hi Robin,
I have attempted to send my file to (support@picotech.com) but have received an "Undeliverable: Delivery Status Notification (Failure) " message.

Is there something wrong with your address?

That's the correct address and I'm not aware of any problems (we are receiving emails). I'm not sure if there is a limit on attachment size. I would suggest trying again and if you still have problems, call 01480 396 395 and ask for technical support.

Thanks Robin, I have been talking to Peter via email. May have to resort to snail mailing the file on a CD...
Cheers,
Daniel.
