Bus Log Converter

Bus Log Converter

Use this dialog box to configure and to execute the conversion of Bus logfiles to the TDM format. Determine the logfile with the file type and the bus configuration and specify the target file.

On the Conversion of Logfiles with a Script page you will find a script that enables you to convert all logfiles from a folder into the TDM format. Press <Ctrl-Shift-C> to also record the current settings of the dialog box that is open, in the recording mode. If the recording mode is not enabled, press <Ctrl-Shift-C> to copy the settings of the open dialog box to the clipboard.
