compactrio file corruption

[JF2]

Hi all,

I have an issue with my compact rio.

I save data files on the non volatile memory. unfortunately I had unwanted power shutdown, and now I can not ftp the file.

it seems to me the fat is corrupted somewhere.

with the ftp client, I can see the file, but the transfer can not be done.

I really want to get this file back... (important unique data).

does anyone has an idea how I can get the file and recover the error?  (I am working on how to avoid that later..)...

thanks for your help!

Can you write a simple LabVIEW program that attempts to read the file and display it in a string indicator or re-write it to a new file?

I tried to copy it from the ftp client and it did not work neither.

I did not try with another program yet, the instrument is "in the field" and I could not try to reread the file it self, but I will as soon as I can get my hand on it. good advice.
