DataRead
DataRead Tool
This tool visualizes the contents of a .data file with multiple views plotting a variety of channels, providing insights about the source tests for a variety of use cases.
Navigate to DataRead Staging
From the Dashboard, go to Tests > DataRead.
You should now see a list of uploaded .data files in a table as well as an interactive file upload utility.
Upload Data File(s)
You can either drag multiple files from your local file explorer or select "Browse" to choose .data files for upload. Once uploaded, the files will automatically appear in the table below the utility.
Note: The file upload component includes a note about the maximum file size allowed for upload. If you would like to change this value and have the appropriate permissions, navigate to Advanced > Global Settings and scroll down to the DataRead Settings section. There, you should see a field to edit the maximum upload size. Once the edit has been made, be sure to click the Save Settings button.
View List of Data Files
The table below the file upload lists all uploaded .data files that are available in the database. This table includes the file name, the file size, when the file was uploaded, and whether or not the file was uploaded as a Test Result. This list can be sorted by creation date or test result status. A filter above the top right of the table can be used to only list files uploaded during the current day. There are also options for viewing, processing, downloading, and deleting each file.
View a File in DataRead
To launch DataRead for a .data file, select the View button in the row of your file of choice. This will open DataRead in a new tab. It will take a few moments for DataRead to fetch all relevant data from the file.
On the left side of the page, you will see three collapsible sidebars: Plot Options, Data Options, and Display Options. To the right of these sidebars is the main plotting section. For some views, a table of metrics will be shown below the plots.
