Detailed Description

Interface to read/write CLB files.

The CLB file format is used in the software C-Logger (Contec Inc., Spartanburg, USA) and contains only analogs data.

Based on reverse engineering, its content is separated in a header and the data with the following informations:

* // Header
*  - key: string (18 characters): 0x434F 4E54 4543 2044 4154 4120 4C4F 4747 4552 (CONTEC DATA LOGGER)
*  - Version: integer 16-bit
*  - Channel number: integer 16-bit
*  - Device name length: integer 16-bit (n)
*  - Device name: string (n characters, where n is the value extracted previously)
*  - Resolution: integer 16-bit
*  - Serial number length: integer 16-bit (m)
*  - Serial number: string (m characters, where m is the value extracted previously)
*  - Sampling clock: integer 32-bit (unit in µs)
*  - Time integer: 8 bytes (integer 64-bit) // WHAT IS THE FORMAT?
*  - Number of frames: integer 32-bit
* // Data
*  - Channel name length: integer 16-bit (o)
*  - Channel name: string (o characters, where o is the value extracted previously)
*  - Device channel: integer 16-bit
*  - Sequence: integer 16-bit
*  - Input range: integer 16-bit (code to convert to a corresponding range)
*  - Scaling Enabled: integer 16-bit
*  - Maximum scale value: float 32-bit
*  - Minimum scale value: float 32-bit
*  - ??? (Option): 32-bit
*  - Data block (number of frames x integer 16-bit) 
* // ... Same format for the other analog channels
* 

Note: Some informations were also found in the documentation of the manufacturer on the web (especially for the channel information. See file C-LOGGER_UsersGuide_124e.pdf). However, it seems that there is no license for this documentation but only on the software. So, I don't think there is any copyright infringement.
