DENSsolutions formats
---------------------
RosettaSciIO can read any logfile from DENSsolutions' new Impulse software as well
as the legacy heating software DigiHeater.

.. _dens_impulse-format:

DENSsolutions Impulse logfile
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Impulse logfiles are stored in ``.csv`` format. All metadata linked to the experiment
is stored in a separate ``metadata.log`` file. This metadata file contains crucial
information about the experiment and should be included in the same folder with
the ``.csv`` file when reading data using RosettaSciIO.

.. Note::
    To read Impulse logfiles in `HyperSpy <https://hyperspy.org>`_, use the
    ``reader`` argument to define the correct file plugin as the ``.csv``
    extension is not unique to this reader:

    .. code-block:: python

        >>> import hyperspy.api as hs
        >>> hs.load("filename.csv", reader="impulse")

.. _dens_heater-format:

DENSsolutions DigiHeater logfile
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

RosettaSciIO can read the heater log format from the DENSsolutions’ DigiHeater software.
The format stores all the captured data for each timestamp, together with a small
header in a plain-text format. The reader extracts the measured temperature along
the time axis, as well as the date and calibration constants stored in the header.
