Second day user, first time poster:D I did a search, but didn't find anything.

How do use the logging feature. My wife has the laptop all day and I want to datalog during the day.

Any tips/instruction will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Rob

Once you have your pid file opened (Duramax Imperial.pid) and you have connected (File->Connect) you can start monitoring data by hitting Ctrl+M. Now comes the important part - select F3 to start recording. I initially drove all over town thinking I was logging, but I was only monitoring. :cool:

You can pause logging by selecting Ctrl+Space and stop logging by hitting F4. Once you stop logging the software will prompt you for a filename to save the log file.

Have Fun!!

I think he is talking about data logging without a laptop.
