DataLogging, Download and Load

Postby spinner » Thu Jul 11, 2013 1:11 pm

Hi,

On the DataLogging screen in the config 0.9 what's the difference between the "Download" button at the top and the "Load" button to in the middle between the two datagrids.

Sometime's i'd say 25% of the time at the moment the logs are not being recorded fully. So we'll just get a few minutes of the log when it's downloaded to kml. What a possible reason for this and is this something anyone has experienced before.

Thanks,
Tim.

Hi Tim,

Download & Load is indeed the same. I'd better make it the same name in the next release.

Indeed this datalogging needs to be updated. It is a circular buffer but a lot of short datalogs can mess things up. It is advised to format the memory when it is nearly full (4096 pages) and you have a lot of short datalogs.

The idea is to move datalogging to a separate SD-card while keeping configuration & navigation on the on-board memory.
