Data recording

The following tasks describe how to record a data run with the SPARK in
periodic sampling mode and manual sampling mode. Over the course of a
science investigation, you can record multiple data runs and sets.

Recording a run of periodically sampled data

With the SPARK in periodic sampling mode (the default mode, sometimes
known as “continuous” mode), complete these steps to record a data run:

1.

Touch the Start button.

You can press one of the record buttons instead of touching the on-screen
Start button.

Record buttons

The SPARK creates a new data run and starts recording data points into it.

2.

To stop recording data, touch the Stop button.

You can press one of the record buttons instead of touching the on-screen
Stop button.

The SPARK stops recording data.

Repeat these steps to record another data run.
