To create an NC file from a measurement (submatrix) select the element and click on the => button. The application and instance attributes will be added to the NC file as global attributes.

The NC file will be saved in the displayed folder.

All submatrices of a measurement are copied into one NC file if a measurement is selected in the browser. If a specific submatrix is selected, only the data of the selected submatrix is copied into the NC file.

The file name is created from the names of the elements AoTest, AoSubTest, AoMeasurement, AoSubMatrix, separated by an underscore.

If the database uses IDs greater then 2^32-1, the IDs will be displayed in the dialog box in the following form: 12345:123 (lowbytes:highbytes).

Data-Editor

To view or edit the data click on the Edit button.
