NVM Datalogger application
The Non-Volatile Memory (NVM) datalogger application enables you to make a log of data collected from
the accelerometer (using the device’s non-volatile memory), and export it (the data) to a text file. This
enables you to evaluate the device’s default settings and any of your modifications, for tailoring the
datalogger for your data-collection needs.
NOTE
•
The datalog is not erased when the device is powered off and on.
•
When the NVM datalogger is started, a new piece of firmware is loaded
onto the device to enable its use (you may see a Loader screen). When a
new application is next opened, the firmware will be returned to normal
(you will see the same screen again).
The application can collect the data, using either the device tethered to the computer with the USB cable
or using a 9V battery board (LFSTBBAT9). The battery board can be purchased on
Figure 5. Battery board
