Logging Your Data
Set logging options using the Logging tab. This determines where your data is logged to
when you do an acquisition.
Use the Log to options to select where to log your acquisition. Select one of the following:
• Memory — Acquisition is logged to memory. This means that the acquired data
that you do not otherwise save (using Export Data) will be logged to your system's
memory, and will be available to you only during the acquisition session. The data
will be lost if you do another acquisition, or you close the tool without exporting the
data. This is the default setting.
• Disk — Acquisition is logged to disk as a VideoWriter file, in the location you specify
in the Disk logging area. This means that the acquired data will be logged to disk
and will be available to you there after the acquisition session. After selecting Disk,
the Disk logging area becomes editable and you can enter or browse to the location
and name the file.
• Disk and memory — Acquisition will be logged to both disk, in the location you
specify in the Disk logging area, and memory.
