- A Accelerometer data structure
- M Magnetometer data structure
- T Temperature sensor data structure
- info Information structure for the deployment
Inputs
| Input var | Description | Default value |
|---|---|---|
| fname | is the file name of the Daily Diary text file including the complete path name if the file is not in the current working directory or in a directory on the path. The .txt suffix is not needed. | N/A |
| depid | is a string containing the deployment identification code assigned to this deployment, for example, mn12_186a. | N/A |
Outputs
| Output var | Description | Units |
|---|---|---|
| ncfile | ncfile is the name of the NetCDF file containing the tag data. It will be 'depid'_raw.nc (e.g., mn12_186a_raw.nc). | N/A |

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2017-08-06 | Octave | read_tdr10dd_csv | error: datevec: DATE not parsed correctly with given format | 133 | OCTAVE does not handle fractional seconds with precisons >3. For example '19:04:00.8525 04-Sep-2011' will not parse, while '19:04:00.852 04-Sep-2011', '19:04:00.85 04-Sep-2011' and 19:04:00.8 04-Sep-2011 will parse correctly. This error also effects read_dd | Reported |

Example
Matlab & Octave
fn = read_dd('C:\tag\octave\tagtools\testdata\dd_oa14_319a\oa_14_319a_data','oa14_319a')
loadnc(fn)
The workspace should now contain variables A, M, T and info, each of which is a structure.
