Data Logging
Logging Notes:
MetStream logs data to an internal SD card (not user removable).
Data logging occurs continuously once MetStream is connected to a
recognised/configured external instrument; in this case data logging cannot be disabled.
If no unit (e.g. MetPak) is connected to the MetStream then no data is logged.
MetStream logs data at the output rate of the connected instrument (up to 20Hz).
MetStream creates daily log files up to a maximum of 29 after which the oldest dated
folder is deleted.
Logged data can be downloaded to a PC or to a USB flash drive connected to MetStream.
Saving Logged Data to a PC Download Location
Select the Measurement Log Tab.
If for instance you had selected the box of Log: 28/11/2013 and Clicked on
Save
this
would save an MSLOG_20131118.csv file to the PC Downloads Folder.
(E.g. Start/Documents/Downloads (MSLOG_Year/Month/Day.csv file).
This file can automatically open in a spreadsheet format if for instance Microsoft Excel or
Libre Office Calc are installed on the PC as per the following example. Otherwise the data
can be opened as a Comma Separated text file.
