The CSV utility creates text files (* .csv or * .fmc) from data records (* .rog) . Files
saved in * .csv format can subsequently be opened and edited in a word process-
ing or spreadsheet application . The * .fmc files can be transferred to FreeMat1 .
Creating a text file
• Start CSV (
Logger Program window > Tools > Csv) .
• Select the output format (standard * .csv or
FreeMat * .fmc)
• Click on Start and select the data record from which
the text file is to be created . CSV creates a text file
(* .csv) and saves it in the corresponding directory
for that data record . Text file (* .csv) and data record
(* .rog) have the same name .
Note on creating * .csv files: If a template (* .mse) exists for the data record in ques-
tion, CSV takes this into account when creating the text file (* .csv) .
Example: Opening a CSV text file with Excel
• Start the word-processing or spreadsheet program .
• Open the CSV file via File > Open .
