8.2 Exporting Logfiles
The CUSA Clarity maintains logfiles of events, including error codes and handpiece data from all handpiece connected to the console. Logfiles are
stored as text files. They open using any text editor program (e.g., Notepad). A technician may import Logfiles into a spreadsheet using tab-separated
variable format. To export logfiles stored in the CUSA Clarity console:
1. Insert a USB stick into the CUSA Clarity USB port at the rear side of the console. Format the USB stick as FAT (FAT16, FAT32 or exFAT)
or NTSF. The system does not support other file formats.

serial number of the console. This folder contains:
• Logfiles containing all events dated since the manufacturing of the console.
• MaintenanceTrendData.csv containing monitored values dated since the manufacturing of the console.
• Handpieces folder containing all handpiece logfiles from all handpiece connected to the console previously. The system names the
