Waters 4-bytes format
mdussere opened this issue · comments
I get a "The 4-bytes format is not supprted" error when trying to read my waters FUNxxx.DAT files.
I have read your doc and code, and I would like to implement some 'parse_funcdat4' function.
Do you have any clue ?
Did you find some documentation from the constructor or is it pure reverse engineering ?
Thanks in advance and congratulation for the good work.
The code is really nice.
Can you please upload your problematic file? And no, sadly, there's no information about the file formats that's publicly available. My colleague may be able to look at the problem, but he's quite busy so you may need to look into it yourself...
I have this batch for example
In my example, I have (259 X 3) "pairs" of values of 4 bytes each.
I tried to print the binary code and it looks like the first byte is pretty much constant 10001010 or 10001011.
Maybe I'm missing something because I print 28 bits instead of 32 bits

I would say the "pair" is in fact only the abundance value
- bit 1 is meaningless (always 1)
- bit 2-5 is the powerval (evolves very slowly)
- bit 6-7 are meaningless (always 01)
- bit 8-28 is the baseval (evolves quickly, vale drops strongly when powerval increase of 1)
Maybe something like baseval * 2^(powerval - 20) or baseval * 2^(powerval - 8).
Do you have access to waters chromatography software to check the values ?

I tried on another example of data which seems very flat (many full-zero pairs) and I think one matching formula could be:
baseval * 8^(powerval - 12)
| powerval +--+ baseval |
|----------+--+--------------------|
0000001001 01 11110101000000010010 -> 1003538 * 8^(9-12) = 1960.0
0000001010 01 00000110001010101011 -> 25259 * 8^(10-12) = 394.7
0000001000 01 10010110001110110101 -> 615349 * 8^(8-12) = 150.2
0000000111 01 10010110001110110101 -> 615349 * 8^(7-12) = 18.8
0000001010 01 01010100111100001100 -> 347916 * 8^(10-12) = 5436.1
0000001001 01 01111011000100111000 -> 504120 * 8^(9-12) = 984.6
0000000110 01 11101000100010011011 -> 952475 * 8^(6-12) = 3.6
|----------+--+--------------------|
I think the powerval
is applied on a base 8 because when the powerval
increase of 1 the baseval
seems to decrease by a factor from 3 to 7 (the opposite when decreasing). It could be a base 10 but it would be at odd with the other X-bytes formats
baseval * 10^(powerval -10)
. Base 16 could be also a candidate.
I will try to confirm when I get some screenshots of the chromatograms corresponding to the data I have.

Great work! Please keep us posted!
Hi @ekwan,
I think I got the formula right and produced a patch.
(baseval / 1024) * 2^(powerval-10)
I know its the same thing as baseval * 2^(powerval-20)
but I like the concept of integer part / decimal part of the baseval that evolves between 2048 an 1024.
| powerval + - + baseval int.dec |
|-----------+---+----------------------|
0000001001 0 11111010100 0000010010 -> (2052114 / 1024) * 2^(9-10) = 1002.001
1111111111 0 11111111111 1111111111 -> (2097151 / 1024) * 2^(1023-10) = 1.798e+308
I don't have the rights to push a dev branch on the repo.
Can you open me some limited writing rights to push my dev branch.
This is the patch I would like to propose

Cool, great work! Can you please make a pull request? Maybe @evanyeyeye can review?
For me to make a pull request, I think I must previously create a dev branch and push it to the github origin.
I don't have access rights to do that.
I think the usual way is to fork the repository, make the changes in your fork, and then make a pull request from there.
Hi @mdussere. Sorry for taking so long to get back to you. Awesome work!
You need access rights to push to the repository, but not to make a pull request. You can follow the official guide here to make a pull request, so that I can credit you for your work.
Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks for your contribution!
