Configuration Panel
In the Configuration Panel, you will find four different tabs that will
help you prepare, manage, and analyse your experiments. Some of
the tabs are dynamic: they will automatically be shown when
relevant. You will always be able to switch between tabs manually.
EXPERIMENT CONFIGURATION
Here you set up your experiment by selecting the sample duration
and rate and choosing what sensors to collect data from. For each
sensor, you also have to select sensor mode, since most sensors
can provide different types of data.
DATASET TABLE
In addition to displaying the collected data in the graph area,
a dataset will be shown in the Dataset Table. Here you can also
rename the dataset, delete or hide it, and change the plot style and
colour of the graphs.
DATASET CALCULATION
Here you can manipulate datasets and graphs by doing various
calculations using numbers, functions, and other datasets.
The output result will be displayed as both graph and dataset values.
GRAPH PROGRAMMING
By dividing your graph area in different zones, you can enable your
sensor input to trigger or activate an output: for example, a motor
or a sound from the EV3 Brick when the sensor values reach a
certain level or threshold.
To learn more about the EV3 data logging environment and see how
you can get started with your first experiment, see the Data Logging
and Data Logging Overview videos in the Quick Start section of
the Lobby.
You can also find more information about how to log data in the EV3
Software Help.
