  1. In MATLAB, go to the "Current Folder" (left in default layout), and select import data from the context menu.
  2. You may want to change settings that a presented automatically.
  3. Lastly, press Import Selection on the right and generate a script of function that you can reuses for this type of data.

Ah, yes, this is not ASCII data. Well, it now depends if this other software provides information about that format. It would be legitimate to not provided information, but most companies do, or provide C code (you could use within MATLAB) to import.
