The very first thing to do would be to test your read by listing the first few values of mon,day,hour,minute,data:
LIST/I=1:30 mon,day,hour,minute,data ! Noting more than 24 points to test HR. Is this correct?
Two possibilities come to mind:
1) Since you do not specify the axes/grid of the input, Ferret is taking it along the x-axis, not the time axis as you want. Apparently DAYS1900 is just reading the numbers so it works at least partly but I think everything would be smoother (especially later if you want to plot on a time axis) if you defined the time axis and grid right at the start with DEFINE AXIS and then DEFINE GRID, then read the data with FILE/.../GRID=
If you know the time range and axis exactly - and since you have a small number of records - you can define the time axis from looking at the raw data. Otherwise, if you know that the time axis is regular you could use t
onically increasing.
What am I missing?
Thanks!
