How to export data generated by Avantage to CasaXPS
CasaXPS cannot read the *.vgd files that are generated by Avantage when a spectrum is recorded. All data from Avantage that you wish to analyze using CasaXPS must therefore be manually exported from Avantage. Below is a procedure on how to do this.
- You have to run the file called DataSpace_BAtchDump.exe that is a part of the Avantage installation. This means that you can run it on the K-Alpha, the Nexsa or your own computer (provided that Avantage is installed on your own PC). On the K-Alpha and Nexsa computers a shortcut labelled 'Export data to CasaXPS' has been put on the desktop . Depending on the Windows installation the file should be in the folder
- C:\Program Files\Thermo\Avantage\Bin\ or
- C:\Program Files (86)\Thermo\Avantage\Bin\
- Running DataSpace_BAtchDump.exe will open the window
