2.6.9 stoponvusb
The “stoponvusb” tag stops data logging operations when a 5v supply is detected on the USB
connector. Without the stoponvusb option (default), the device switches power from the internal
battery to the USB 5v and continues to log data.
2.6.10 statusindicators
The brightness intensity of the LED status indicators is defined using the “statusindicators” tag and
valid settings of “normal”, “high”, and “off”.

Example Configuration Files
2.7.1 Example A
The following configuration records data at 100 hertz. Deadband and deadbandtimeout are set to zero
so the logger will record constantly at the set sample rate. Each data file is 90,000 lines long, which is
15 minutes of data. The status indicators are set to high brightness. The logger is activated with the
on/off button (notice “rebootondisconnect” is not active).
2.7.2 Example B
The deadband and dwell settings configure the device to record at least 5 seconds of data when a
change greater than 0.1g is detected. The deadbandtimeout setting forces a sample write every hour.
