puter. Configure the log file under Settings > Logging Options. To log data:

Click Select File, then choose the directory where you want to store the file, and
name the file.

File headings: When checked, the Date and Time and Field Labels for data
columns will be included in the data file header.

Field delimiter: Choose between a space, tab, or semi-colon delimited text file.
l
Log rate (seconds): How often a value is recorded. This can be one measurement
per 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 10, or 20 seconds. It is independent of the Filter setting
(described in Other options on page3-8).

Log values: Select the values you want in the log file.

The instrument will create a text file according to the parameters you set. You can
