Opening UFF Files
The UFF file type is primarily associated with LMS Test.Lab.
What is a UFF file?
The UFF file is used as a container for internal data. Its content is defined by the application that creates it. In some cases it holds a Universal File Format for test lab data, such as those used in Siemens LMS Test.Lab (Siemens).
Other uses include:
- TensorFlow Graph Format: Some UFF files store network definitions or graphs for TensorRT. More details are available on the TensorFlow page.
- Ultrasound Data Storage: Certain UFF files use the HDF5 structure to hold ultrasound data. They are often opened with HDFView (HDFView).
- Scene Description: Other files bundle scene data in ZIP format for universal scene description.
- FPGA Test Data: In some systems, UFF files hold FPGA request or test data.
- UK Electricity and Forms: There are UFF variants used for UK electricity/gas meter data and even as Unisys Forms Files.
- IRIS Video File: A few UFF files are used to store Iris Universal video data.
FilExt.com tip: You should check the file’s header or accompanying documentation to know which application is needed. The correct viewer depends on the specific use case of your UFF file.
How to open UFF files
You need a suitable software like LMS Test.Lab to open a UFF file. Without proper software you will receive a Windows message "How do you want to open this file?" or "Windows cannot open this file" or a similar Mac/iPhone/Android alert. If you cannot open your UFF file correctly, try to right-click or long-press the file. Then click "Open with" and choose an application. You can also display a UFF file directly in the browser:. Just drag the file onto this browser window and drop it.

Programs that open and convert UFF files:
- LMS Test.Lab
See the previous paragraphs to learn more about the main application. UFF files are often referred to as LMS Test.Lab data files because this type of file is primarily created or used by this software.
- DataWave Physiological Data File
UFF file format:
To view or edit UFF files you need to know the file format, because it determines how the data in this file is stored. The first characters in a file identify the file format, for example, HTML files start with the bytes <html>. If the file extension does not match the file format, double-clicking on the file will cause an error upon opening. Exact knowledge of the format is therefore important in order to solve problems occurring in files. Below you will find our evaluation of the UFF files:
The UFF file extension is quite common and covers different formats for different programs. The file formats most commonly found in UFF files are:
- 50% of all UFF files start with the magic bytes -1, which are always the first bytes of this file format. These files are text files and can therefore be read using a text editor. UFF files can be up to 1 GB in size, but are often around 24 KB - 38 MB. It is a modern file type. Certain words are almost always found in the files, such as NONE, EXCITATIONRESPONSE, UFF Format, 4 0 0 0 NONE 2 0 NONE 1 0 and Transfer function. Such UFF files store data about data, export, time, frequency, recording, modal, responses, sampling, vehicle, input and trial.
- 15% of all UFF files have the same signature 08 01 10 01 1A 18 0A 14 74 65 6E 73 6F 72 66 6C. If you open these files in a text editor, you will see only illegible characters. UFF files can be up to 320 MB in size, but are often around 1 MB - 89 MB. The following keywords are characteristic: main, tensorflow_extension, dtype, custom, _NMS_TRT", concat_priorbox, Squeeze, concat_box_conf, varianceEncodedInTarget_u_int, shareLocation_u_int, conv, BiasAdd, Const and Sigmoid. Examples of file names are ssd_mobilenet_v2_coco.uff. These files are often associated with mobilenet, coco, graph, model, unet, segmentation and output.
All other UFF files (35%) have no consistent format, often, for example, HDF5, ZIP, ZHV and RESU. These files sometimes refer to picmus, carotid, cross, long, simulation or speckle. If you want to find out what your UFF file contains, drag and drop it onto this page.

a uff data container is a special file format and should only be edited and saved with the appropriate software.
How to solve problems with UFF files
- Associate the UFF file extension with the correct application.
- Update your software that should actually open data containers. Because only the current version supports the latest UFF file format. Search, therefore, e.g. on the manufacturer website after an available LMS Test.Lab update.
- To make sure that your UFF file is not corrupted or virus-infected, get the file again and scan it with Google's virustotal.com.
