Free Software for Philips X-ray Diffractometer

Philips PC-APD system on MS-DOS system

File Conversion for ASCII data, "UDF-UDR file converter".

UDF-UDR file conversion; Coded in English

This converter changes the .UDF ASCII file which was stored originally as RD binary file and typed out as an ASCII data, to the another format of ASCII Data-File(.UDR file) on MS-DOS.

This can compensate the effect of auto divergence slit.

You should convert the .RD binary file to the .UDF ASCII file by APD_Utility in advance.

This generates the .UDR ASCII File for Users' Analysis.

After the conversion, you will get the following .UDR file, which can be edited in your favarite graphic software for the better presentation. All measured data are sorted by 2-theta vs Intensities after 20 line header. The asterisk line will be skipped when FORTRAN program like Rietveld analysis was applied on the converted .UDR file.

udf_udr0.bas (7kB)
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. For the Japanese Users : Any graphic command speciallized for VGA was not used, but I suggest that the users of NEC-MS-DOS should compile this source by your Quick BASIC on NEC-DOS.

udf_udr0.exe (48kB)
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.
HINT: For your installation, please edit your Philips X-ray diffraction menu called "X'MENU", by giving "edmenu" command from MS-DOS at the directory XMENU under the directory APD. The recommandable directory to put this EXE file is APD. Otherwise, please set its full path at "edmenu".

udf_udr0.pif (1kB)
PIF file; only for WINDOWS95. Before usage, please edit this to fit for your environment. Use MS-DOS(US mode) and change the command line! The user, who let the udf_udr0.exe work only on MS-DOS mode, does not need this PIF file.

apd.ico (1kB)
Icon file; for MS-Windows. Not necessary item.

rd.ico (1kB)
