DI–718B and DI-718Bx Series Hardware Manual
DI-718B and DI-718Bx stand-alone data loggers place 256 equally-spaced event markers into all data files when
recording to SD (except when using Remote Controls). This allows easier navigation through larger files. Click on
Event Markers in the View menu to access and "jump to" each of these event markers.
The Calculate command in the File menu is unavailable in W D Waveform Browser for SD. Use the Save As...
IN AQ
command in the File menu to save data to another format in order to perform Advanced CODAS calculations (File >
Save As... > option 8) CALC is still available). Converting data from a .wdc format to a .wdq format is also possible
with File > Save As.... Choose option 2) Binary (with CODAS header) and enter a file name with .wdq as the exten-
sion. For more information regarding the Save As... function, consult your W D Waveform Browser Help File.
IN AQ
A stand-alone data file acquired with remote events or storage enabled displays an hourglass when opening while it
scans for event marks and timestamps in order to construct an Event Marker table. Use File Save or the "Save All"
button when changing files or exiting to write the Event Marker table to the file and avoid a delay when the file is
opened again.
