Control with the Log Off Card Button
The
Log Off Card
button is used to start and stop logging and safely
disconnect and reconnect the internal and external memory cards.
If the button is pressed while logging, logging is stopped and all
interactions with the memory cards are canceled. Then it is possible
to access the memory cards via the USB connection or to remove
the SD card from the slot.
If the button is pressed again, the memory cards are reconnected
and logging is restarted. If this is done while the memory card is
accessed via USB, the USB connection is canceled or kept
depending on the configuration (see chapter 7.2.7 page 38).
7.4.3
Handling Trace Files
The messages of all configured CAN channels are saved to a binary
coded trace file named
Trace_###.btrc
. The 3-digit file index
###
is incremented when a new file is created.
A new file is only created if the maximum file size is reached. If
tracing was stopped and then restarted, saving is continued in the
same file which was used before.
Beside the
*.btrc
trace files, a
*.next
file is stored on the memory
card. This file contains information about the current tracing
process and how to proceed if continued. If trace files are removed
from the memory card, this
*.next
file must be removed too.
Tip:
Using the software PEAK-Converter, trace files can be
converted into other formats and single channels can be
extracted. The PEAK-Converter can be downloaded for free
from our website
