Data Recorder

The ImuAssistant has build-in data recorder function. TransducerM output displayed in ImuAssistant can be logged into files.

Select Data Types to be Recorded

To use the data recorder, firstly we need to select the data types to be logged. This is done by enabling one or more output

types in the data-manipulation portion of the user interface, as shown in Figure 33 (the data types within the confine of the red

polygon).

You should then see the selected data being displayed and updated in real time in the data table on the right side of

ImuAssistant (the section number 3 of GUI as shown in Figure 8). If not, please check the procedures described in section

'Finding Your Device' on page 6, and 'Communication Protocol' on page 17.

Configure Settings and Start to Record

The data recorder panel is located on the bottom-right corner of the ImuAssistant. Before recording, you can choose to enable

'Format & Comment' feature in the log files, as shown in Figure 34, which makes it easier for us to understand the meaning of

each column of the log files to be generated.

Then we press the 'Record' button, as shown in Figure 34. A pop-up window appears asking the location for saving the log

files. Choose a location and press the 'Save' button, the recording starts from now on.

It is recommended to select file locations such as 'My Document', instead of the application installation path, to avoid the

possible 'writing permission forbidden' issue.

Stop and Save Log Files

During the recording process, you should see the 'Total File Size' accumulates over time.
