Graphing software

[alex199020]

Does anyone have any suggestions for a good (free/open source) piece of software thats good to plot the CSV data recorded using MES?

Preferable one thats 'intereactive' i.e i can zoom in on a specific part of the graph, change the scale etc as I am recording data at max rate over 15/20 minutes so trying to look at it all in one go is not useful.

I can't use MES and import the data for a few reasons. As far as i'm aware a single licence is for one PC and my set up is little netbook is used with the car to gain the data then i use my desktop to analyse it properly as its not a tiny screen! So any data gained that can't be viewed in the free version can't be used on my desktop.
I also want to be able to mix data from different 'recordings' so i can see how different conditions effect things.

Thanks in advance

Whilst it is true that the Free Version of MES can only monitor and record 4 parameters at a time and for a limited connection period only the Free Version can be used to import MES saved date from the Licensed version of the program.

So you use your licensed version of MES on your Netbook and car to gather all the data you want and save to CSV file.
Copy CSV file to your desktop/analysis PC and import the data into to the Free version of MES.

I've already tested this theory with 8 graphed parameters and all is Ok. I'm pretty sure that when graphing data with the Free version then there is no time limit as you are not connecting to a vehicle component.

Merging of data can be done with an editor although rather tedious and this new file can then be imported into MES.
