Does anyone know how to import datasets with binary, floting point values into ORIGIN PRO 6.1., or
alternatively, does anyone have a script that would accomplish this?

Thank you very much for your help

Since version 5.0, Origin has supported a LabTech import on the File : Import menu. This does binary import of two types:

  • BINARY INTEGER - 16 bit unsigned binary
  • BINARY REAL - 4 byte floating point

The file has to be 'raw' binary - no headers, no footers, no fillers.

Limited, but if the shoe fits ...

I haven't seen the documentation on-line, but you can order replacement manuals from OriginLab. I'd make sure that includes the OriginPro manual first.

Our version of ORIGIN Pro6.1 came without documentation (Universit license). Is there a chance to download a .pdf version of chapter 5 of the OriginPro manual?

Chapter 5 of the OriginPro Manual describes the File Utility methods and properties used to import binary (and ASCII) data and provides several example scripts. Unless the format of your data files is complicated you will probably only need to know the number of bytes in each data value (file.nBytes) and use the file.open(), file.close(), file.Aread() and perhaps file.size() methods. Let us know if you need any more help with the scripts.
