LOGFILEAUTOSTART (ASCII)

SF-3050

Sapphire

SF-3040

This command is used to start data logging automatically on the SD card/SD flash after power
cycling the receiver.

Command:

[LOGFILEAUTOSTART] {ON,OFF}

Parameter

Definition

ON

Enables auto start of data logging, but data logging does not start until after power-cycling
the receiver

OFF

Disables auto start of data logging; stops data logging if data logging is currently running

Detault: OFF

When auto start for data logging is ON, data logging will start automatically on the SD device
after power cycling the receiver.

A new file is created in the

“\datalog” directory when data logging starts automatically. The file

name is datalog_Year_Month_Day_Hour_Minute.dat.

When doing a graceful down (pressing the power button to turn off power or entering a
[SHUTDOWN] command), the file is closed automatically.

The [LOGFILE] command is used to query data logging status.

Examples:

[LOGFILEAUTOSTART]
Returns the current settings for auto start of data logging


[LOGFILEAUTOSTART]ON
Enables auto start of data logging, but does not start data logging immediately; the user
must power-cycle the receiver if data logging was previously OFF


[LOGFILEAUTOSTART]OFF
Disables auto start of data logging; stops data logging if data logging is currently running


The ON setting can generate an error condition during receiver power-up, depending on the
state of the SD device.

Error message(s) are generated via the [SDCARD] output stream. The [SDCARD] output
stream has to be enabled for the user to see an error message. The following list is a collection
of possible error messages:
