Click Start Logging to start the logging function. Each time the program polls the output
information from the device, it creates a new log entry showing the raw data values, the values
of various control registers, and the values entered by the user into the text fields near the
bottom right corner of the window.
Click Stop Logging to stop the logging function. Once logging stops, the user may store the
data in a file, or continue collecting additional data by clicking Start Logging again.
The Log a Single Entry command causes logging to start, collect one single entry, and
immediately stop again. This function is not available when logging is already running.
Click Clear Log to discard any previously collected data. If there is data in memory, which has
not been saved to disk, this function displays a prompt asking to verify it is OK to discard the
data. If the log is active when this function executes, the log continues running after the
existing data is discarded.
Click Save Log to save the collected log data to a csv file. This stops the logging function, if it
is active, and displays a file dialog box to specify where to store the logged data. The Log
Status and Control Information section below describes the default file name, but you may
change the file name if desired.

continue.
