DS-2000 Frequently Asked Questions

Question number FAQ-0671

Can the "***.rcd" file saved with the DS-0221 recording function be played with the standard media player on Windows?

Files saved as "***.rcd" with DS-0221 cannot be played directly with the standard Windows media player. They need to be converted to WAV format for playback.

To perform the conversion, the XN-8000 series measurement processing software "Repolyzer" is required, along with the XN-8100 measurement platform and the XN-0850 data editing software. Using the XN-8100 series, load the "***.rcd" file saved with DS-0221 and convert it to a WAV file for saving.

  • Click the button to the right of [FileRead] on the remote control palette. The [Open File] dialog will appear, so select the file extension ".rcd" and click the open button after specifying the "***.rcd" file (Figure 1).
