Real-time Data Logging

PAS allows you to store data records to a database automatically at the
time it updates data on the screen.

To setup the real-time logging options:
Open the Data Monitor window.

Click on the RT Logging On/Off

button on the local toolbar, or

select RT Logging Options from the Monitor menu.
Select a database, or type the name for a new database and select a

directory where you want to save it.
Select the number of tables, and the number of records in each table

you want recorded.
Adjust the file update rate for automatic recording. It must be a
multiple of the sampling rate that you defined in the Instrument Setup

dialog.
Click Save.

When you run real-time data polling, PAS automatically saves retrieved
records to a database at the rate you specified.

The RT Logging On/Off button

on the toolbar should be checked

all the time. You can suspend logging by un-checking the button, and
then resume logging by checking it again.
