Viewing and updating data headers

- Hover over the datafile you want to view the header information for, click on the datafile menu icon and select "Header data".
- On the data headers page you'll see a table which lists each column and their units. Click on the column nameto edit.
- From the pop-up you can edit the header name and the units for the data.
