RAW Binary Lattice Import Automation Options

Since the Import Options dialog is not displayed when the program is driven from an automation script, an options string can be specified in the script. The string consists of comma-separated parameters, which specify the behavior of the various import options.

Option

Action

Default

DataType

5=Unsigned 32 Bits (integer)

6=Signed 64 Bits

7=32-Bit float

8=64-Bit Double
