Hi,

There are a number of ways of reading these files. But as they contain
binary data (as opposed to ASCII text) the applications you tried will not
display the data in a readable format.

Firstly there is a simple python script in Shimmer's contrib folder that
will read the data:
http://tinyos.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/tinyos/tinyos-2.x-contrib/shimmer/scripts/read_em.py?revision=1.1&content-type=text%2Fplain

Chapter 8 of the Shimmer User Manual (Rev 2Rc) explains how to read the data
in the files using GNU Octave or Matlab.

And finally on Shimmer-Research's website there is a Window's tool called
"JustFATLogging Viewer and Converter", that, as the name implies, can
display the saved data or convert it to a different format (.csv).
