Data analysis

The measuring data is stored in an open source, tab separated text format, which
makes adapting and importing the data easy. See chapter 5.5.3 on page 32 for a
detailed description of the file format. It can also be analysed with a spread sheet
program like MS Excel.
Zehntner provides a free software called "MappingTools" for easy and quick data
analysis. Please refer to the separate "MappingTools" instruction manual for more
information.
For RetroGrabber Versions 3.0.x and 3.1.x the following steps must be taken
in order to import the measuring file into the "MappingTools" software Version
1.25 or older.
Go to "Settings – General" and press the button labelled "Convert to old
format" on the right side.
Choose the appropriate ZDR 6020 measuring file "xxx.xls" from the explorer
window.
Now there are three files called xxx_converted_1.xls, xxx_converted_2.xls
and xxx_converted_3.xls which can be imported in the "MappingTools"
software.
The new version of "MappingTools" (1.26 and higher) can import all ZDR 6020
measuring files without prior conversion.
