D
APPENDIX 7 FILES ON THE SDHC CARD
The SDHC card can be 'read' by any PC with a built-in multi-media card reader or by an external
card reader which usually plugs into a USB port.
When the card is inserted into the reader, you will then normally be presented with the standard
Windows menu giving you options on what you want to do with the files. If you choose 'view
files', then a standard folder structure is displayed. In the 'root' will be the file “ID.txt”.
In this file a line is created every time the D is powered, ie switched off and then on. It
is an identifier to show the ID of the unit, which is customisable, and the time and date that the
unit was started.
There will also be a Year folder. Double-clicking on the Year folder will then give access to day
files for that year. The file name is in the format yyyy:mm:dd. This is a text file.
Within each Day File will be a line of data from your D for every logging point. This file
can be imported into any spreadsheet or text handling programme and manipulated as
required.
