@rmduarte : I think you should be able to load your files by switching to the debug-7f79 branch. I'm still interested to know the details of the hardware and software you're using. In particular: can you let me know the model name/number of the instrument, and any software you used to configure the instrument, read data from the instrument, or post-process the data?
Hi Levi. Thanks a lot for your support. We were able to read the data file. I don't have the details about the model used, but Jeff will contact you later with that information.
797F (depending on your endianness) is the ID for waves packets.
You can split the data with this code: http://trac.nccoos.org/dataproc/browser/DPWP/trunk/DPWP/ADCP_splitter/pd0.py
I believe the fix for this has been merged into master, at some point.
A file that I received from some collaborators has a different header start byte than what is indicated in the RDI documentation. I still do not understand why this is, but branch debug-7f79 resolves the issue for the file they supplied. For now I'm going to leave this fix in that branch until I understand the source of the discrepancy.
