Import - DAC or RPC III
You can import test data in DAC or RPC III format. The steps involved in importing the data are essentially the same for both formats; however, it is important to remember that RPC III format supports multiple channels per file while DAC format only has one channel per file.
Adams View creates a DAC_FILE or RPC_FILE object below Root in the database after you successfully import these files. It only stores information about the imported file from the file header. It does not store time history data in the database. Adams View also creates Result_Set_Component placeholders below the file object for each RPC III data channel or DAC file.
