BL-View uses the 16-second message interval when plotting data.

If your DAT files contain data that has been logged with other than the 16-second interval, you must change the settings of the DAT files. The conversion service needs the information so that BL-View can display the data correctly.

  1. Go to the following folder on your computer:

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Vaisala\BL-View\config

  2. Open the file level_one_import.ini in Windows Notepad.
  3. Change the instances information from:
    [__INSTANCES__]
    L1_INPUT_AUTO=YES
    L1_INPUT_USER_DEF=NO

    to:

    [__INSTANCES__]
    L1_INPUT_AUTO=NO
    L1_INPUT_USER_DEF=YES
  4. Change the message interval information.

    The message interval of the DAT files must be 2 ... 75 seconds.

    For example, if the DAT files were logged with the 30-second interval, change the information from:

    [L1_INPUT_USER_DEF]
    DIRECTORY=[S]"LevelOneImport"
    RUN_MODE=[S]"UserDefined"
    	; Message interval (2-75 seconds, default 16).
    MESSAGE_INTERVAL=[I]16
    	; Time span of one DAT file (1-24 hours, default 6).
    DAT_FILE_SIZE=[I]6

    to:

    [L1_INPUT_USER_DEF]
    DIRECTORY=[S]"LevelOneImport"
    RUN_MODE=[S]"UserDefined"
    	; Message interval (2-75 seconds, default 16).
    MESSAGE_INTERVAL=[I]30
    	; Time span of one DAT file (1-24 hours, default 6).
    DAT_FILE_SIZE=[I]6
  5. Select File > Save.
