Files Creation mode
•
Two operation modes are possible for FN button. If the
Log file
radio button has
been selected, pressing FN will result in
closing the current log-file or, if data logging
has been off,
opening a new log-file. If
AFRM
has been selected, pressing FN will en-
able this mode, if it has been disabled, and vice versa. The associated receiver parame-
ter is
/par/button/rot
.
Automatic File Rotation Mode (AFRM) parameters
•
Period
specifies the time duration of each of the multiple log-files created in AFRM
mode. The corresponding receiver parameter is
/par/log/rot/sc/period
.
•
Phase
specifies the “phase” (i.e., constant time shift) of the multiple log-files created
in AFRM mode. The corresponding receiver parameter is
/par/log/rot/sc/phase
.
•
Use the edit box
Files (total)
to specify how many multiple log-files must be cre-
ated in AFRM until this mode automatically turns off. The corresponding receiver pa-
rameter is
/par/log/rot/sc/cout
. Zero means that an unlimited number of log-files will be
created.
•
From
Files (remain)
you can see how many log-files are left for the receiver to
create in AFRM. The associated receiver parameter is
/par/log/rot/count
.
•
If the checkbox
Automatically remove old files
is selected, the receiver will
start, should there be no free space left in the receiver memory, overwriting the least
recent files
14
. The corresponding receiver parameter is
/par/log/rot/rmold
.
FN key mode
•
These two radio buttons are used to program how the receiver will react to clicking FN
(i.e., keeping the button depressed for less than one (1) second). In
LED blink
mode switch
mode, clicking FN will toggle between the Minter’s standard and ex-
tended information modes. (For more details, see the MINTER User’s manual). In
Occupation mode switch
mode you click FN to get the receiver to insert into
the corresponding log-file a message indicating that the occupation type has been
changed from static to kinematic, or vice versa. The corresponding receiver parameter
is
/par/button/action
.
Initial data collection dynamic mode
•
These radio buttons specify the starting
occupation type descriptor
15
that will be in-
serted at the beginning of each receiver files logged via the MINTER. You select
Static
and
Kinematic
to specify that the corresponding log-file will start with a
static and kinematic occupation, respectively. The associated receiver parameter is
/par/button/dyn
.
Data recording auto-start
14
In other words, existing files will be overwritten based on the first in, first out (FIFO) principle.

This event message is called _DYM.
