Evoscan 0.90 problem

Hi
I get error message when starting the datalogger

Info: Initialising At 5 baud 0x00...
Info: Initialisation Complete...
Info: Waiting for INIT Response...
Info: Connection successful...
Error: Canīt convert string Err to type Double.

Has anyone had this problem ?


Thx
Fredrik

There was an error in the config file. The application was throwing an exception and the data conversion code isn't smart enough to catch it.

One of your formulas has bad syntax. Did you modify any of the formulas?

No, the problem is that you guys use a comma (,) instead of a period (.) to delineate numbers

For example, you use 6,25 when evoscan is setup to see 6.25

In "Regional and Language Options" in the Control Panel, how are numbers set to be displayed?

Hi
I use standard Swedish keybord layout, it seems to be the same as english.
only the time that differs, we use 20:00 instead of 08.00 can that be the problem?

What about fractional representation of numbers.. for instance 5.25

In some european countries its represented as 5,25

Commas are used as delimiters, so if your localization uses the comma for fractional values (decimal values) it will foul up the output and throw an error.

I know the time stamp on 0.9 changed, it does use hh:mm:ss.xxxx as the format or something similar, where previously the minute and second values were seperate columns.

Thats probably a good idea if you can start over easily. Otherwise you just need to set your numeric settings to use the USA format for time and decimal representation.
