7.4.2.3 Viewing Flight Notifications

After downloading data, you can view the
notification messages and warnings that
appeared on the OSD screen during flight. To
do this, click on the “View Flight Notifications”
button. See section 9 for the meanings of
flight notification messages.

7.4.2.4 Sessions

Each time you power on the Vector, a new
“Session” is created in the data log. This makes
it easy to differentiate data between different flights. Sessions are indicated with vertical gray bars on the
chart, and individual sessions can be selected on both the chart and the Google Flight Map views.

7.4.2.5 Saving and Loading Data Files

To save a data log file for later use, click the “Save Logged Data To Disk” button in the “EagleEyes and Data
Logging” tab of the software.

To load a previously saved file, click the “Load Data File from Disk” button.

7.4.2.6 Using Excel™ to View Data

The log files are compatible with Excel ™ spreadsheet software, and other spreadsheet products supporting space
delimited data files.

To load a saved data file in Excel, click the Open option in Excel, and type “*.FDR” in the file name field. Then navigate to
the location where you saved the .FDR file, and click on the file.

Excel should then bring up the “Text Import Wizard”. Choose the “Delimited” option, and on the next page choose “Space”
delimiter. The data should then load correctly in Excel.
