Nathan, That looks suspiciously like a file generated with Spec. Enabling the "SPEC" (and/or "SpecFileLongLine") plugins in the Plugin registry doesn't seem to work either. I don't know why that doesn't work. I am not an expert at dealing with spec files, but I was able to read this file with PyMca, and with the larch Spec reader (which uses PyMca, and requires it to be installed), using something like larch> scan1_roi1 = read_specfile(FileName, scan=1, cntx='Energy', csig='roi1', cmon='I0') (and, indeed it looks like Zr XANES) That's not exactly "open and read with Athena", but hopefully it provides a clue.... --Matt On Mon, Mar 12, 2018 at 12:21 PM, Nathan Nakamura wrote:

Hello Everyone,

I'm fairly new to XAS/Athena, and recently collected XAS data at the F3 beamline at CHESS. I have had trouble importing our data files into Athena for processing, and I did not see a plugin for this beamline. Has anyone experienced a similar problem and may be able to point me in the right direction? I've attached an example of one of our data files, as well as an image of the error I've been receiving.

Thank you, -Nathan Nakamura
