Key points provided by FilExt.com include:

  • Function: Holds calibration parameters such as measurement offsets and adjustment factors.
  • Usage: Managed automatically by calibration routines within the WinCal system.
  • Not designed for manual editing; changes must be made through the WinCal tool.
  • FilExt.com note: This file keeps precise calibration details that are integral to ensuring measurement accuracy. To view or adjust a C2 file, use the dedicated calibration software.

    How to open a C2 file

If you cannot open your C2 file correctly, try to right-click or long-press the file. Then click "Open with" and choose an application. You can also display a C2 file directly in the browser:.
