To setup the real-time logging options:

2. Click on the “RT Logging On/Off” button on the
local toolbar, or select “RT Logging Options” from the
Monitor menu.
3. Select a database, or type the name for a new
database and select a directory where you want to
save it.
4. Select the number of tables, and the number of
records in each table you want recorded.

must be a multiple of the sampling rate that you
defined in the Instrument Setup dialog.
6. Click Save.
When you run real-time data polling, PAS automatically saves
retrieved records to a database at the rate you specified.

on the toolbar should be

checking the button, and then resume logging by checking it
again.
