I am using a new install of Diadem 2021 with the AstroMed DataPlugin to read a large (600001 points x 12 channels) .dcr file. I've successfully read another file from the same AstroMed. I get an error message:
This has happened twice on the same file. Does anyone have any idea on the cause? I can open the .dcr file ok in AstroView.

Hi BradW,
Looking at the source code for that DataPlugin, it looks like the out of range number 15993 is the index of the desired event in the AstroMed data file header. That sounds like a really large number of events. Does that sound like what this large file of yours contains, nearly 16000 events?
Ultimately, we'd need to test the DataPlugin against a data file of this type and see if we can improve it to handle this case better. Are you able to post this data file for R&D to take a look at?

Unfortunately, it is not public info so I can't send it.

It is a large file, but I'll have to see if the data is tagging many or all datapoints as "events". I didn't set up this AstroMed so I don't know off the top of my head. There's some odd stuff in there so maybe that's the issue.
