GuestI’m trying to get the log file converted through excel. My excel is not as strong as it should be. The files on the sd card are a conv.py file and 90 log files with txt data. The question is how to I run the conv.py file to convert the txt data?

GuestHi Dave,
You need to run CONV.PY, which is a program written in Python.
One simple way to get Python is to download this:
Portable Python 3.2.5.1 and install it straight onto the MicroSD Card. You don’t need any libraries, just the minimum install, so it takes up 50 MB.To run the conversion, you would open a command prompt (shift-right-click the SD Card and select Command Prompt Here) and type something like this:
`E:\> “Portable Python 3.2.5.1\App\python.exe” CONV.PY
It should run through all the TXT files on the card, and produce CSV files. It ends (with an error) when it runs out of files.

You could also install it on your hard disk.To run the conversion, you would open a command prompt (shift-right-click the SD Card and select Command Prompt Here) and type something like this:

It should run through all the TXT files on the card, and produce CSV files. It ends when it runs out of TXT files. The TXT files need to be in order, starting from 00, so either just leave them all on the card, or remove them all when you’re done.
