each processing step. NOTE: If you start over at an intermediate step, log information,
workspaces and data files associated with subsequent steps will be overwritten.
The final data sets will be named based on what is specified as the “site
designator” which can be entered into the InitGuiDriver.dat parameter file as siteid
(Figure 14). For example, if you specify “Site1” as the site designator then Site1.mat and
Site1lp.mat will be the final data sets created for the hourly and lowpass filtered data sets,
respectively. Default names PIESXXX_#.mat and PIESXXX_#lp.mat are used if a site
designator is not specified. We recommend using short site designators since they are
also used to name the structure arrays in the final data sets. IES_DRIVER can be
executed without the GUI interface. Details about IES_DRIVER options can be obtained
by running help on IES_DRIVER in MATLAB.
At the MATLAB prompt, type:
>>IES_GUIDRIVER
The default IES_GUIDRIVER window will appear as in Figure 3. The GUI
parameters can be initialized manually or from a previously created parameter file (see
Section 3.4 InitGuiDriver.dat). To initialize with the values entered in an
InitGuiDriver.dat file, that file must be in your current working directory or specified in
the Read Directory entry in the GUI window. Enter the IES serial number and file index
(e.g. 076_1) and press the Initialize button in the upper middle of the GUI. The defaults
of Figure 3 will be replaced with the values associated with 076_1 from the
InitGuiDriver.dat file (listed in Figure 14) as shown in Figure 15. Parameters not
specified in InitGuiDriver.dat will keep the default values of Figure 3. NOTE: Once
initialized and the first step has been run, any value filled in (as in Figure 15) will be
retained for all subsequent processing steps and need not be specified again unless
changes are desired.
