The lower right corner of the window contains status information and controls for the logging
function:
Figure 8. Logging Status
This section contains text boxes that are stored in the log file data and used to build the file name
for the log file. If the data in these fields are changed, the new values are stored with any new data
logged. The default log file name is based on these values at the time the log file is written. If
nothing is entered in these boxes they default to a period (“.”).
Sample default file name:
TSL2541_1-2-3_Log_HH_MM_SS.csv

The
Count
value displayed is a count of the number of samples currently in the log buffer.
The
Elapsed Time
value indicates the elapsed time since data logging was started.
The final field in this section controls the number of log samples to collect and then automatically
stop and save the log data. Once the count of the log entries reaches the amount shown in this
field, the program stops logging and pops up a window asking for a file name to save the collected
data. After saving the collected data the log is cleared and the count is set back to zero.
