What is a SOT file?

SOT files mostly belong to ImageMagick. SOT files can hold two main types of data.

DDS Texture File: Many SOT files contain compressed DirectDraw Surface images used for textures in 3D graphics. This type of file is handled by image processing tools such as ImageMagick.

Siemens Test Suite Measurement Data: Other SOT files store test measurement data from data acquisition systems. These files are used with industrial software like LMS Test.Lab and DEWESoft X. More details are available via the Siemens Lifecycle Management Suite.

FilExt.com tip: Examine the file header to decide which type you have and choose the appropriate software to open and view the data.

How to open a SOT file

You need a suitable software like ImageMagick to open a SOT 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 SOT file correctly, try to right-click or long-press the file. Then click "Open with" and choose an application. You can also display a SOT file directly in the browser:.
