Dear Users<br>
I need your kind help to plot the multile binary files in using one .ctl file.<br>
I downloaded TRMM 03 hourly data for a period and also .ctl file from TRMM site</p></blockquote><div><br>It is always a good idea to give the URL so that someone could try to download the same files and reproduce the problem... Also, provide the output of "q config" and "!uname -a" so that we can know which version you are using...

<br>
<br>
3B42.020601.00z.6.precipitation.bin<br>
3B42.020601.03z.6.precipitation.bin<br>

3B42.020602.00z.6.precipitation.bin <br>

Here I am giving the .ctl file as follow:</p></blockquote><div><br>I am assuming that the individual ctl provided with data works fine. <br><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">

dset ./3B42.%y2%m2%d2.%h2z.6.precipitation.bin<br>
options template byteswapped</p></blockquote><div>The option "byteswapped" is deprecated. Use either "big_endian" or "little_endian", depending on the endianess of the machine TRMM used to write the data.

We are running the .ctl in IBM(P5) machine.<br>
It showing Gridded are undefined. I hope it could not open the files. when I plot individual files alone it is ploting properly.</p></blockquote><div><br></div></div>Can you plot t=1 through t=9 with the template version of the ctl?
