Dump

Dump programs write binary raw data files to text. By default the output is displayed in the command-line window. Alternatively they can be sent to a text file, and read in a text editor.

The available dump utilities are listed in the C:\Program Files\CARIS\HIPS and SIPS\10.1\modules\HIPS and SIPS\bin directory, and are run from the command line window, with the following syntax:

where linenumber.xtf identifies the line and linenumber.txt is the name of the output file.

This will create a text file of the raw xtf data in the same folder as the raw xtf file. Alternatively you can specify a path to a different output folder.
