The TDMS file extension is used for LabVIEW TDMS data files. The National Instruments Corporation defined the format. TDMS files store simulation or measurement data recorded by LabVIEW and other National Instruments software. They also store descriptive information like procedures, fixtures, sensor data, and author details.
For more technical details on the TDMS file format structure, see the TDMS File Format Internal Structure document. TDMS files automatically generate an associated *.tdms_index file. This index file speeds up data access for larger datasets.
How to open TDMS files: Use LabVIEW or other National Instruments software. Convert TDMS files with TDMS file converter tools. View TDMS files with TDMS file viewers. Edit TDMS files with TDMS file editors. But note TDMS file contents should only be edited and saved with appropriate National Instruments software.
