3.6 Data Monitoring and Recording
Throughout the MIP Monitor views the same icons are used to control data streaming
(sampling) and recording. These icons can be found in the MIP Monitor main window icon
toolbar and in each data monitoring window. The same commands are also found in the main
window Control menu.
Figure 11 - Main Window Controls
There are several data monitoring views available depending on what measurements are
desired for monitoring and recording. Each view corresponds to one of the main categories in
the Device Settings window. For example, the 3DM-CX5-10 includes Sensor Data Monitoring
for the IMU/AHRS measurements. During viewing and recording, only the outputs that are
selected in the Message Format tab are displayed and recorded.
Data streaming must be started in order for data to be recorded, however it is not necessary
to view it in a data monitoring window. Data monitoring is used primarily to confirm the system
is operating correctly or to view the outputs in near real time. If sensor setup has already been
confirmed, streaming and recording can be initiated from the main window.
