8... POST-PROCESSING OF COLLECTED DATA
OVERVIEW
Once data has been collected by the OMP-MODL and downloaded to a OMP-MODL
Download file on the PC, a number of powerful data analysis and viewing options
are available from within HyperWare. (See HyperComm, Chapter 5 for details on
downloading data from the OMP-MODL).
The Post-Processing window within HyperWare provides the capability to `post-
process’ (ie process after collection) data in the following ways:
Graphically plot collected data using HyperPlot
Merge data from separate logging sessions into a single file for
Before and After type performance comparisons
Save HyperPlot graphs to bitmap (*.BMP) files allowing
seamless inclusion into other Windows applications such as
wordprocessors and spreadsheets
Convert collected data into an Excel Version 4 (*.XLS) file
Convert collected data into a date/time annotated ASCII (*.TXT)
file
Algebraically manipulate collected data and save to a new
OMP-MODL Download, Excel, or text file.
HyperPlot is a powerful graphing module included in HyperWare that can be used for
immediate plotting of collected data.
File conversions and algebraic manipulation of collected data are handled by
constructing a Post-Processing Net which converts downloaded data from a OMP-
MODL Download file to another User defined file/format.
POST-PROCESSING NETS
Post-Processing Nets provide a means to convert OMP-MODL Download files to
various formats and, if desired, perform additional algebraic processing of collected
data as it is converted to the new file format.
