Interpreting the data

Data received from the Nokia-Siemens EWSD can include arrays and tables.

The start of an array is indicated by the characters <<<. The start of a table is indicated by a line containing the characters ---+---. You can specify how the probe interprets data using the following property settings:
  • To instruct the probe to interpret arrays, set the DecodeArrays property to 1.
  • To instruct the probe to interpret the first table that appears in an event, set the DecodeTables property to 1.
  • To instruct the probe to interpret the second table that appears in an event, set the DecodeSecondTables property to 1.
Note: The DecodeTables and DecodeSecondTables properties have limitations. The probe will only decode a table over 3 lines, for example:
title line
title line
separator line containing ---+---
value line
Certain masks contain tables with three title lines or two value lines.
