Logging Data to a USB Flash Drive via a USB Host Cable (SF-3050)
The [LOGFILE] command used in this and the immediately following procedure
does not work with USB flash drives that have a write-protected primary partition.
The partition will not mount properly. The most common examples of this are drives
with U3 software installed. In order to log using these drives, this partition must be
removed. Reformatting the drive is not sufficient. According to the U3 web site:
“Most U3 smart drives come with an uninstall utility that converts the U3 smart
drive into a regular USB flash drive. This utility can be accessed from the U3
Launchpad. Open the U3 Launchpad and click on Settings, then select U3
Launchpad Settings and click on the Uninstall tab. Some devices have a link to the
Uninstall utility under Help and Support.”
The [LOGFILE] command requires that at least 10% of the drive is free before it
begins logging. It will also automatically stop logging when free space drops below
1 MByte.
To view the directory structure and logged files, the USB drive must be dismounted
and moved to a PC.
