LogTag Recorders LogTag Analyzer Temperature Recorder Thermometer User Manual


 
84 LogTag Analyzer
%TIME The time when the LogTag information was originally retrieved.
%USERID The user defined identifier for the set of information recorded by the
LogTag.
You may use the \ character to specify that a file name definition includes a sub folder
name as well as the actual file name, which is useful if you want to group/sort files
automatically together, for example, by date or by User Id.
Each of the following elements within the quotes (") are not permitted, as they are not
supported the operating system ": * ? < > |". If you do include one of these elements in
the definition of how the file names are to be created they will be replaced with the
_
character.
If you use a date and/or a time element, the format of that element will be determined by
the settings defined in the "
Date and Time
" set of options.
Folder
This determines the location where the files are automatically stored. The location defined
here can specify a local drive path or a network drive path. UNC folder names are
supported. The (
) button at the end of the edit control will assist you to locate the
default store folder by browsing the folder structure available to you, if you choose to use
it.
Since this is the default location where files are stored, this also represents the default
folder that will be used when searching for files to open (through the Open command in
the File menu).
Uniqueness
This determines how the software will manage information retrieved from a LogTag when
a file of the same name already exists. For example, when you retrieve the information
from the same LogTag once every day, while the LogTag is still recording and the LogTag
has not been prepared for its next use and started again. The options available include:
1 Always create a unique copy of files (recommended)
If a file of the same name already exists, then the software will automatically append "
Copy
n
" to the end of the file name, where "
n
" will be a unique number.
2 Overwrite file if the file already exists
If a file of the same name already exists, the existing file is overwritten (deleted and
replaced) with a file that contains the information just retrieved from a LogTag.
3 Prompt if an existing file already exists.
If a file of the same name already exists, then you will see a message appear asking
you whether or not you want to overwrite and replace the existing file with the
information just retrieved from the LogTag.
If you answer "Yes" then the action described in the option "Overwrite file if the file
already exists", previously explained, will be performed.
