This error generally occurs when your binary data file is too small. Check your file size -- it should be xsize*ysize*zsize*tsize*esize*4 (assuming 4 bytes per data point and you're not writing out sequential data).

I can see the data well, until the time of step 1062 (set t 1062, then 'd t' it`s ok), but when i exceeded from 1062 time of step gives me that error ... How i can run my script saving this problem???. One clue http://gradsusr.org/pipermail/gradsusr/2008-April/006883.html
