LabSat 3 uses I&Q binary data and runs the FAT32 file format. LabSat 3 files are recorded into a folder with separate 2 GB data files which will run sequentially when replayed. The folder description GPS_000 will contain several files with the name format GPS_000_000.ls3. These will automatically increment.
LabSat 2 (.ls2) and LabSat (.bin) files will need to be converted to this format to play on LabSat 3. The LabSat Scenario Converter Software is supplied on the LabSat 3 Hard Disk Drive (HDD). Please see the section ‘Converting LabSat Scenarios’.
