STEP BY STEP PROCEDURE: PROCESSING A SINGLE RAW DATA FILE
Step Action Result
1

Start the LISST-SOP program
Program started.
2

Select Settings from the File menu and click on the
Output Tab. The window below will appear prompting
for the desired output to use for the future data
processing. This selection must be made BEFORE
starting the processing command.
Select file types to be
created.

NOTE: A binary PSD file is always created when
processing raw data. This is used to display the
processed data to the screen using the software.

The ASC file is a space delimited ASCII file containing
the fully processed and calibrated data. This is useful
for loading into spreadsheets such as Excel etc.

The LOG file is a space delimited ASCII file containing
the raw data from the LISST-100X data logger. This is
useful for looking at the raw data in a spreadsheet
such as Excel etc.


You must also select the inversion model to be used
with the real time data processing: Spherical,
randomly shaped or both.
Select inversion
method(s) to be used
– spherical, randomly
shaped or both.

The Spherical particle model performs the
mathematical inversion under the assumption that the
particles that scattered light are all spheres. Sequoia
employs the so-called full Mie solution when using this
approach. The Mie solution is a generalized solution to
the scattering of light from spheres and is being used
as the standard inversion method by all laser
manufacturers.
