5.5.3 Measuring file format
The measuring file generated by the ZDR 6020 is stored in an open source, tab
separated text file. Even though it has an “.xls” file ending, it can be opened and
altered with any text editor like Notepad.
Double click on a measuring file to open it in Microsoft Excel.
Microsoft Excel is not part of the ZDR 6020 system.
A warning appears when opening the measuring file in Microsoft Excel. This
is because the file is not a native Excel file but a tab separated text file, see
above. Click “Yes” to open the file.
The header section contains the measuring head type and serial number, the file
creation date and the information typed in the editor mask, see chapter 5.5.2 on
page 30. Additionally, the interval length taken from the current marking presetting
is indicated; see chapter 5.8.1 on page 37.
The measured data is stored beginning from line 19. Each line represents the
different average values over a certain interval length, usually 50 meters.
