Details

This import function works on data recorded on the ulvac-phi trift ToF-SIMS with WinCadence software version V4.2. Other versions mostl likley will not work. In the current version, data has to be imported with 16bit word length, then converted to 64bit binary and finally converted and read with the word lenghts of the respective variables. Currently, the data is unit mass binned with bins of size one from -0.5 to + 0.5.
