ImportHEKA

  ImportHEKA imports HEKA PatchMaster and ChartMaster .DAT files

  Example:
  OUTPUTFILE=ImportHEKA(FILENAME)
  OUTPUTFILE=ImportHEKA(FILENAME, TARGETPATH)

  FILENAME is the path and name of the HEKA DAT file to import.

  The kcl file generated will be placed in TARGETPATH if supplied. If not,
  the file will be created in the directory taken from FILENAME.

  ImportHEKA has been tested with Windows generated .DAT files on Windows,
  Linux and Mac OS10.4.

  Both bundled and unbundled data files are supported. If your files are
  unbundled, they must all be in the same folder.


  Notes:
  Timestamps from the data file are rounded to the nearest nanonsecond for
  sigTOOL.
  Waveform data are scaled to SI units of A or V in HEKA files. For
  sigTOOL, they are scaled to pA, pV, nA, nV... etc as appropriate given
  the data range.

  The HEKA DAT format is versatile and not all combinations of settings may
  have been anticipated here. If you encounter problems importing files
  please report the bug and send a sample DAT file using Help->Bug Report
  in the sigTOOL GUI
