Hi @sjtuztq , I pushed a commit addressing this issue:

Let me know if it worked for you. In case it don't fix the issue, please provide an anonymized version of the fileCFG file, keeping any special character there. Thanks

@dparrini I have a similar issue, when using the version 0.0.4 it raises a "UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xe7 in position 7: invalid continuation byte", so I had to downgrade to version 0.0.3 in order to read some of the oscillographies, but the version 0.0.3 doesn't read all oscillographies because of some issues with this version

Hi @LFBJC I'll take a look into this, thanks for bringing this up. I'm updating the code to handle issue #18 and hope I can fix this one as well.

[LFBJC]

I think something that may help is that in my case I could read these oscillographies on version 0.0.3, I think it's because of this commit what issue where you trying to address when you did this?

[LFBJC]

@dparrini still the same problem. (note: I copied the comtrade file from this repo and pasted on the comtrade file of my pc as I couldn't install the changes using pip)

[dparrini]

Hi @LFBJC , I pushed a new commit fb09c66 with what I think is a fix to the problem you're having. I didn't release a version in pip with this new commit yet but will if it solves your issue.
You can repeat the test you did by downloading the most recent comtrade.py file.

Let me know if it works. Thanks for your patience.

Hi @dparrini I tried again, it raised another exception, but I think you're getting there.

I did a pull request

Great @LFBJC , thank you for your support on this!

[LFBJC]

@dparrini no worries! tell me when you release a version in pip

[dparrini]
