In this section, you will see an example of the contents of a sampling data file (*.csv) saved to the external storage and, and how it looks when opened in Excel.
If the CSV file size is too large, Excel or other software may not be able to open it.
Sampling data (*.csv) is outputted partly in a fixed format, regardless of the settings on the [Display/Save in CSV] tab. For more details, please refer to the following.
25.12.5.1 CSV File Format
When you select [Hex] as the [Data Type] and open the output CSV file in Excel, the data format may be edited, as follows, by Excel's auto-recognition feature. Check the content of the CSV data in a text editor.
For example, CSV data: "3E8" -> :3.00E+08 in Excel
Please be careful when opening in Excel as it may change the date format.
For example, date in the CSV file is 29/11/10 (CSV Date Format = dd/mm/yy). Excel converts to 2029/11/10
