This short blog article will cover how to process picologger data to get the average and standard deviations from a large dataset obtained from a Picologger, using Excel.
You will need:
- start time of the picologger file, to the nearest second.
- start time and end time for each data point in the experiment, to the nearest second.
Both times need to be synchronised with the time for the picologger:
The easiest way to do this is to just use the clock on the PC that the picologger is connected to, and record the start time, end time, during the experiment.
You can also use the "date created" or "date modified" times saved to the original .plw file automatically if you don't have this. When looking for the start time of the picologger (with seconds), this can be difficult on Windows 7 machines but there are apps you can download from the windows store to find this. It's easy in other versions of windows (right click on the .plw file and go to "properties").
