How Do I Calculate the File Size for a Binary Data Type on the DL850?
Solution:
The formula for calculating the file size for a Binary type (with *.WDF extension) is:
File Size = 805kB + (DataLength*ChannelCount*HistoryCount*2)
where 805kB is the header information area.
Example
Saving 1 history acquisition on 1 channel with a record length of 10k results in:
File size = 805kb + 10k * 1 * 1 * 2 = 825kB
File Size = 805kB + (DataLength*ChannelCount*HistoryCount*2)
where 805kB is the header information area.
Example
Saving 1 history acquisition on 1 channel with a record length of 10k results in:
File size = 805kb + 10k * 1 * 1 * 2 = 825kB
