Firstly you must save a KISS file data from the satellite with WiSP.
Set up WiSP(GSC) as follows.

    GSC - Setup - Satellite Setup - KO-25 - Edit - 
         - MSPE Settings - Log Kiss frames -Check
                           Log telemetry frames - Check

Secondly you run KISS2ASC on Dos Prompt such as the next example.

    >kiss2asc abcdef.kss abcdef.txt

Then one text file can be recreated from the binary KISS file.
