Download procedure

There are two Download Procedures available within the Omnilog Application:

Automatic Download using the New function

Manual Download from the Download tab of the Logger Control function

Automatic Download will get all available information from a logger and save it to a file with a default filename as setup in the Format section of the Options window available from the Tools menu. Automatic Download will overwrite any existing files. When the Automatic Download is complete the newly saved dataset will be available in the Dataset Selector but will not become the active dataset.

Manual Download allows for partial download of the data where this is available on the logger. Manual Download DOES NOT save the dataset. The dataset is available for all OmniLog functions but will be lost if the Application is closed down before the dataset is saved. The dataset can be saved using the Save option of the File Menu or the Save Button on the main Toolbar. A manually downloaded Dataset can be manually saved using any valid filename chosen by the user. (A default filename, as setup in the Format section of the Options window available from the Tools menu, will be suggested by the system). A manual save can be used to overwrite existing Datasets.
