MCDI Logger tool
Logger is a legacy software tool made circa 2004 to log raw output of receiver. Logged data may be read by word processors
and Excel for reporting or /and analysis.
REQUIREMENTS
See Axe Configurator tool Java requirements
and installation procedure.
Port:
Choose and connect to the port your receiver
device is attached to.
Interval:
Set interval at which a new log file will be
created. Possible choices are “Hourly”, “Daily”,
“Weekly” and “Monthly”. Consequently, each log
file will contain signals came within an hour, a
day, a week, or a month, respectively.
Day of month, day of week, hour, minute:
Set the exact time when a new log will be
created. The choices available depend on the interval chosen above. For example, if “Hourly” interval is selected,
and the minute is set to “10”, then a new log will be created at 13:10, 14:10, 15:10, 16:10 etc.
NOTE: Every time you change the interval type or its settings, you should reconnect in order for the changes to
be applied.
Log-Directory:
Select the location of the logged signals. The organization of this directory is as follows:
(log-dir) \ (com-port and device name) e.g. MyLogs\COM3__Exprecium\
Each log file is named as follows:
Year-Month-Day__Hour-Min.log e.g. 2004-06-12__13-00.log
Thus, it shows the date and time it was created.
NOTE: Every time the logger starts, it attempts to open the previous log, based on the interval settings. For
example, if it was 14:25 currently, the interval was set to “Hourly”, and the Minute was set to “00”, the logger will
try to open the log created at 14:00. If, indeed, this file exists, the logger will use it to log incoming signals until
15:00, as usual. If, on the other hand, the file does not exist, the logger will create a new log labeled with the
current time of 14:25 and use it to log incoming signals until 15:00.
Auto-Ack
Toggle automatic acknowledging of the incoming signals.
Acknowledge
