To strip LIF structure from raw measurement data
To strip LIF structure from raw measurement data
•
Write a program that strips LIF structure from raw data files.
You may want to convert the data.raw file into a format that is consistent
with the file format transmitted from the HP 16500B via HP-IB. The
following example program will perform this conversion.
The data.raw File Format
The format of the data.raw file is similar to the file format described in the
Programmer's Guide or Programmer's Reference for the measurement
module that you are working with.
The data.raw file consists of a 512-byte header, followed by one or more
256-byte records. The first 36 bytes of the first record are reserved. The
remaining 220 bytes of the first record contain data. The first 2 bytes of each
additional record are reserved. The remaining 254 bytes of each record
contain data.
