(6) Manual Trigger – Clicking the button immediately activates the trigger or post-
trigger event. This feature is also accessible via the LBK1 device.
(7) Explorer – Clicking the button accesses LogBook’s Explorer, which allows you to search
the PC-Card for acquisition files and the indexed trigger blocks within the acquisition files. The
Explorer can be accessed from LogView’s Device pull-down menu. The following section provides
more detail.
Explorer
(has no toolbar
icon; it is selected
from the Device
Menu or the
LogBook Monitor) The Explorer window can be reached from the Device menu or from the button in the
LogBook Monitor window. Explorer allows you to search the PC-Card for acquisition files and the
indexed trigger blocks within the acquisition files. The Exploring windows look first at the acquisitions
saved to disk and then deeper into each trigger block within an acquisition.
The convention for naming files is described on page LV- 9. In the following example (see figure below),
TriggerBlock_2-2 uses “TriggerBlock” as the seed and “2-2” to indicate the 2
nd segment of the 2 nd trigger
block. The binary data file ends with the .bin extension understood in the LogView Explorer.
