The Data Logger can create files in a .LI format; this is a fast and compressed format.

The LI File Converter can be used to convert binary data from a .li file into plain text data in .CSV (comma-separated values) format, or to a MATLAB .mat file. You can download the LI File Converter on the utilities page. The LI File Converter is also built into our desktop Apps. 

Furthermore, mokucli includes a functionality that allows you to convert .li file to other formats. For more information, please install mokucli and enterthe following command in PowerShell/cmd:

mokucli convert --help

The details of the command can be seen below:

PS C:\Users\heyan> mokucli convert --help
