Data format

Data

collection

(save) and

import

*.ddib, *.rcu and *.dcf format

• Raw data in the terminal is decoded in *.ddib format

with larger file capacity. Users can directly use *.ddib

file in Pilot Pioneer.

• Raw stream in the terminal is in *. rcu format with

smaller file capacity. Users cannot directly use *. rcu

file in Pilot Pioner unless it is decoded into *.ddib file.

• Shared files are in *.dcf format with larger file capacity.

*. dcf format which is independently developed by

DingLi is used for streamlined and refined data and

suitable for files shared and supported by the third Party

post-processing tools.
