Binary Waveform Data Format (.bin)

The NI-SCOPE Soft Front Panel can save data in a binary file that conforms to the following specifications:

• File extension—.bin
• File header—none
• Data—Data are stored as a continuous single stream. The creator of the file must remember the data type the data were stored in. Data can be imported in 8-, 16-, or 32-bit binary, and can be little or big endian format.

Binary files save only one channel of data and offer advanced options for byte format. Associated header information is saved in a separate text file with the same name.
