Automatic logger files saving
Files which contain the logger data are saved automatically in the
SD Card
memory
with an extension .SVL. To enable automatic saving several conditions should be
fulfilled:
1. SD card should be inserted and there should be enough space on it.
2. The
Logger
(
path: <Menu> / Measurement / Logging / Logger Setup
) should
be switched on.
The logger file name is defined automatically using a pattern
LLdd
, where
LL
is the
string of letters (so called
prefix
) and
dd
is a string of digits that forms a number
(
path: <Menu> / Measurement / Logging / Logger Setup / Logger Name
). Up to 8
characters can be used to name a file.
The default prefix for the logger files is
L
.
The individual counter is assigned to every prefix of files the user has created and
saved in the working directory and is equal to the maximum number of these files.
So, the next saved file will always have a number higher than the counter.
The user can change the automatically
generated file name in the special screen,
which is opened after
pressing the ◄ or ►
push-buttons.
If the user changes number of the name, the
instrument will accept only that names which
number is higher than the counter, assigned
to the file prefix.
After changing file name number and
pressing
<Enter>
the counter will be adjusted
to the new number.
►
The user can change the prefix. In such case the instrument assigns the new counter to the new prefix.
The file number automatically increases after every saving operation.
The screens below show the automatic file saving during two subsequent measurements. Before and during first
measurement the file name
L30
is displayed. This file is saved automatically in the SD card memory after the
measurement stop. After start of second measurement the instrument automatically changes the file name to
L31
and this file is saved after stop of the second measurement and so on.

Note:
During the measurement run with data logging to the logger file the “curve” icon is displayed.
