Logging Mode
The Logging Mode specifies the naming convention for the logged MCOM file(s). Two modes
are available: Automatic; and Manual.
Automatic - in this data logging mode the system will automatically log data to a location
selected by you. You can define the location by selecting a logging location after
choosing the automatic mode. Data will then be logged to a sub-directory of the location
selected based on the date of acquisition.
The example C:\tmp\061231\102656 shows you have selected a base directory of C:
\tmp. MOTION Control then starts a folder on the date of acquisition C:\tmp\061231 and
then creates another folder for the time the acquisition was started C:\tmp\061231
\102656. In this example, the acquisition date was 31-12-2006 and data logging was
started at 10:25:56 AM.
This process continues for each time data logging is stopped and started with a new time
folder being created for each logging session in the same day and a new date folder
being created for a logging session in a new day.
Manual - in this data logging mode you will have to select a folder location and allocate
a file name for logged file.
Location
This is the location the MCOM files will be saved to as mentioned above.
Start new file every
Allows you to automatically create a new file ever x Kilo-, Mega or Gigabytes. It is recommend
to use this option to allow easier post-processing of the data and prevent reaching file system
restrictions (e.g. 2GB file size on FAT32 file systems).
Start
Start the logging MCOM data with the parameters you have set in the Setup. The option is only
available once the setup was completed. When logging is started the button will be
highlighted and Stop Logging will become available. Additionally an information message with
the logging file location will be written to the Message Log.
