### Example:

*To convert an RXD file to asc, use the below script:*

#### @echo off

CD C:\Program Files (x86)\Influx Technology\ReXdesk\\&\&rexdesk convert-file -I “C:\Users\user\Desktop\Input\New Project\_ReXgen0000049\_20210702\_113743.rxd” -O “C:\Users\user\Desktop\Output\Converted.asc”

&#x20;*To convert an RXD file to CSV after linking a DBC file, use the below script:*

#### @echo off

CD C:\Program Files (x86)\Influx Technology\ReXdesk\\&\&rexdeskconvert-file -I “C:\Users\user\Desktop\Input\IMU\_out\_0000007\_20211116\_185402.rxd” -O “C:\Users\user\Desktop\Ouput\Converted.csv” -s can0 “C:\Users\user\Desktop\ReXgen\_IMU\_Out\_V2.dbc”

&#x20;*To convert an XML configuration file to rxc, use the below script:*

#### @echo off

CD C:\Program Files (x86)\Influx Technology\ReXdesk\\&\&rexdesk convert-file -I “C:\Users\user\Desktop\Input\New Project\_ReXgen0000049\_20210702\_113743.xml” -O “C:\Users\user\Desktop\Output\Config.rxc”
