In case you want to confirm the detection judgment of the area when playing
log data, it is necessary to open the original project file used while recording
the log data. Please make sure to save the project file.
Make sure that you record the data in Monitor mode. If you record in Edit
mode, output status will not be recorded in log data.
Record to "ubh" files extension. Cannot play log data in other extensions and
formats.
When "Prioritize recording (Continuous mode)" is selected in application
setting of Area Designer, then it will reduce the "Skip count". Although
"Prioritize recording (Continuous mode)" is selected, skips the log data. In
that case select "Distance only support" also. (Depending upon the
specification of computer, the data cannot be recorded in real time.)
