Online Data File in XML Format (".XML")
The same measured values are saved in this file, as in the plain text file described
above. The only difference is the format used. Here, the data are saved in XML format.
XML (Extensible Markup Language) is a data definition language, standardized by the
consortium W3C. This enables, among other things, simple exchange of data over the
Internet. For this reason, the online displays' measured values are also saved in this
format. You can acquire more detailed information regarding XML online at
"www.w3c.org".
The file begins with the normal XML header, followed by a brief comment:
Directly afterwards, the "root element" of the document begins:
2002-10-02
15:01:31
…
Within the root element are the elements "" and "", which indicate the
date and time when the file was created.
