The LM-1 MUST be directly connected to the serial port of the computer for
downloading, not through an MTS chain.
The LM-1 log data can be reset after downloading by selecting:
File->Reset LM-1 log
If you are always using the LM-1 as first device in your log chain follow this
procedure to make sure the LM-1 channel configuration is always automatically applied:
1. Configure the channels when the channel configuration wizard shows.
2. Save the downloaded file as .log file.
3. In the main Dashboard window, use File->Import Channel Description… and
select and open the just saved .log file. LogWorks will extract the channel
description data from the .log file and use it as default for the Dashboard and
further LM-1 downloads.
6.5.2 Downloading SD-card (LM-2 or DL-32) data
To download logged data from an SD card insert the SD card in your SD card reader. Then use:
File->Import/Download->Import DL-32 log…
Or use the Tool in the Main Dashboard Toolbar and look for files with the extension .dl32.
Browse with the file open dialog box for the removable drive that contains the .dl32 log files.
The .dl32 files contain also information about the devices that contributed to the log and their
settings. This is of course restricted to only the recording device itself and devices connected to
the recording devices IN port.
LogWorks will search through the channel descriptions it knows about (the ones configured in the
Main Dashboard) and will try to match channel descriptions to the contributing devices and their
inputs. If no channels ever were configured, like after LogWorks is used the first time, the channel
configuration wizard will ask you to configure the channels. It will also ask you for new devices
that it did not know about before.
To make sure the new channel descriptions are applied for future downloads follow
this procedure:
1. Configure the channels when the channel configuration wizard shows.
2. Save the downloaded file as .log file.
3. In the main Dashboard window, use File->Import Channel Description… and
select and open the just saved .log file. LogWorks will extract the channel
description data from the .log file and use it as default for the Dashboard and
further .dl32 downloads.
