IES LAMPS - read data from ies file

alemanda

I'm trying to read some basic data from IES file (for example the Power Consumption) using OPEN, INPUT commands but I cannot get the wanted result.

Watt value is stored in the 9th row, 3rd field ...
This is the simple code I'm using
  • ch1 = open ("TEXT", "3010216.ies", "Separator = ' ',mode=RO, LIBRARY" )
    n = INPUT (ch1, 9, 3, test)
    print n, test
    close ch1
"test" is a text variable.
print command returns always -1 value (end of file).

Where do I make mistake?

This is the IES file
  • IESNA:LM-63-1995
    [TEST] 3010216
    [MANUFAC] 1000
    [LUMCAT] 3010216
