Storage Folder and File Name
Automatically Saved Log Files
For log files automatically saved with the Save Log File checkbox on the toolbar turned ON:
| Item | Description | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Storage folder | "folder path entered in toolbar Log Folder" + "\\" + "3-digit number shown in toolbar No field" | The No value is determined when monitoring starts. The software checks whether subfolders with 3-digit numbers (000-999) exist under the folder specified by Log Folder, and uses the smallest non-existing number. |
| Log file name | "string entered in toolbar Log File Name" + "_" + "Ch number (1-1, 1-2, ..., 4-2)" + ".csv" | If split log saving is enabled in options, _<split number (4 digits, starting from 0000)> is inserted between channel number and extension. |
tip
If all subfolders with 3-digit numbers (000-999) already exist under the folder specified in Log Folder, an error is shown when monitoring starts and monitoring cannot start.
Manually Saved Log Files
