To properly read a binary file you need to specify how many vectors and of which data type are available in the file. The settings need to be done in the first tab "Data Format" in the import dialog. If only the half of the data was imported, then it's usually because a wrong data type was provided and the imported data is also wrong after this. Can you please check your settings?

As explained above, providing the proper information about the structure of your data in the "Data Format" tab in the import dialog is key for this format. Please try again with the correct settings and let us know if the problem still persists.
