About CSP files

The .CSP file extension is a notorious 'wildcard' in the digital world, utilized by over a dozen unrelated software ecosystems, making it difficult to identify without context. Most frequently (approx. 13%), it represents a Horner Cscape project file containing ladder logic and HMI designs for industrial controllers. These are often technically Microsoft Compound files (OLE2), meaning they are proprietary binary containers that cannot be opened by standard text editors or viewers. Users often struggle because the Cscape software is niche, and version mismatches prevent opening older files.

However, a .CSP file might also be a text-based Concept Server Page or Caché Server Page (used by InterSystems), which functions similarly to PHP or ASP for web backends. In the creative industry, .CSP refers to CineSpace Color Lookup Tables (LUTs) used for color grading in tools like Adobe Photoshop. Other variants include JSON-based data from Car Scanner ELM OBD2 or XML configurations from Biamp Tesira.

Conversion Recommendations:

For Inspection/Documentation: If your file is a Server Page, Car Scanner log, or Biamp config, it is essentially text. Convert it to TXT or PDF to read the code or data without needing the original software.
For Color Grading: Convert CineSpace .CSP files to the industry-standard CUBE or 3DL format for broader compatibility with video editors like DaVinci Resolve.
For Industrial Logic: Horner files generally require the original Cscape environment to 'Print to PDF' for archiving, as direct conversion is blocked by proprietary encoding.

Convert.Guru analyzes your CSP file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.

Users also converted CLIP, CSD, CSV, PDF, JPG, PNG, MP4, PSD, ZIP, SUT, CPS, XLSX and DB files.

The CSP Converter Story

The history of Convert.Guru began over 25 years ago in California with Tom Simondi’s file-format database. A former contributor to Space Shuttle development and a software pioneer of the 1980s, Simondi established a trusted resource for file type analysis that was even referenced by Microsoft Windows XP. Today, we use modern technology to process and convert thousands of file formats while continually improving our CSP converter.
