Auto Backup
Data files are automatically saved when they are downloaded. The directory is named Databack, and is automatically created in the program’s “Flash” directory with your first download.
If the custom option “Always ask for backup file name” is checked (to check: click “Customize” on the top menu bar), you may use whatever naming convention you wish (Up to 8 characters). You will be prompted to name each file as it is saved. Choosing Cancel at this point will still save the file, however, it will be saved using the automatic naming convention described below.
If the custom option “Always ask for backup file name” is not checked, the data files will be named automatically using the data logger’s serial number. A numbered extension is added each time that particular data logger is downloaded. Therefore, downloading data logger number 00000403 three times will give you file names of 00000403, 00000403.001, and 00000403.002.
The software will give you another chance to save the data in case you have changed computers, deleted files, etc. When the screen asks, “Data has been already saved! Continue Auto Backup anyway?” you can click OK to save the data again or Cancel to proceed without resaving.
