Convert .dat to .txt or .mat
Mostrar comentarios más antiguos
I used DAQ-Adlink USB-2405 to record vibration signals by Visual Signal program then I will receive two files which are 'filename.dat' and 'filename.adl'. When I opened .adl, it shown info as below
# ChannelNames: AI0 [g] (10.31 mV/g)
# DataUnit: [g]
# ChannelScales: 96.9932104752667
I think that ".adl" is created to extract data from ".dat" file. So, I would like to process the signal by MATLAB then can I convert it into .txt or .mat file?
Thank you so much for your help :)

Then your files are not ascii, attach any one file.

movefile('baseline.adl','baseline.txt') is working because it is an ascii file...

The file format for ADLINK .dat files appears to be documented at http://www.adlinktech.com/publications/manual/Software/DAQCreator/DAQCreatorManual.pdf starting on PDF page 57.
I do not at the moment find any code to import the files, but the documentation should make it possible to write some.

You can open the .dat file in MATLAB by double clicking the .dat file from the 'Current Folder'.

Select the output type as 'Numeric Type' or 'String Array' according to your needs and click Import selection. You can see the imported .mat file in your workspace
