6.3.2 Logging to an external USB memory device
The AsteRx SB Sx can also log data to an external memory device
. To connect the device,
you will need a micro-USB cable (CLB_OTG_USB_Micro) to connect to the front-panel socket
indicated by the USB icon.
A high-quality memory device is recommended for external logging as multiple logging
sessions can result in a large throughput of data. The 4K random write speed should be
greater than 0.1 MBps, and the 4K random read speed should be at least 2 MBps
With an external memory device connected, the new device should be visible in the
Log
Sessions
window.
