Free Software for Thermo-garavimetry and differencial Thermal Analysis(TG-DTA)

Rigaku TAS100 system on NEC-MS-DOS system

File Conversion from Binary to ASCII data, "TGDTAASC".
Ver.4.01
14.04.1998.

TGDTAASC File Conversion Program; Coded in English

This converter "TGDTAASC" changes the binary files (File Extension=.0, .1, .2 and .DGT), which store the data of time-temperature, time-difference Length, and measuring conditions, respectively, to a combined ASCII file (.GTA) on MS-DOS.

  1. This generates an ASCII File for the users' analysis.
  2. The created ASCII File is about 3.5 times larger than the binary files.

All the measured TG-DTA data should be recorded, in advance, in three binary files by the Rigaku original software. After the conversion, you will get the following .GTA file, which can be edited in your favarite graphic software for the better presentation, or the better analysis.

The most reacent Rigaku thermal analysis does not use NEC-PC, but UNIX. This software is fitted with the NEC-MS-DOS version of 1980?-1992?.


Example : 'TEST.GTA' file, which records the TG-DTA measurement from 293.52K to 1272.56K, was re-written by this program as follows. All the measuring conditions are displayed on the screen but not recoreded in .GTA file ....

    source PROGRAM; ASCII Text for MS-DOS-Quick BASIC. Not necessary item for executing. If you do not have Quick Basic compiler, then you can let this sorce code work in the interpleter mode from Quick Basic Window. It does not cause any problem. For the Japanese Users : Any graphic command speciallized for VGA was not used. Without any modification, you cancompile this source by your Quick BASIC on NEC-DOS.
  2. TGDTAasc.exe (56.5kB)
    executable file; compiled for IBM-PC DOS(German mode), not for NEC-MS-DOS. This file works without any assistance of Quick Basic run-time-library, i.e., stand alone type.
  3. TGDTAasc.bat
    BATCH file; Please type A TEXT file as follows. IMPORTANT: Please change the below enviromental variable "RYO" to adjust your directory name. If you can not this function correctly, please delete this BAT file. Then, the default directory becomes the current program directory. In the program you can appoint your DATA direcotry.
