Config Save Button - 3DATX parSYNC User Manual

A new test data file is created each time a new connection is established. The file is named
"YYYYMMDD_HHMMSS_parSYNC-GasMOD_Data.csv" where YYYYMMDD is the year, month, and
date and HHMMSS is the hour, minute, and second when the Connect button was clicked by the
user. Thus, each test data file has a timestamp in its file name and no two files should have the
same file name. The test data file is stored in the basefolder\TestData location.
Currently, parSYNC® records data at 1 hz. The actual data recording does not start until you zero
the system or hit the "Start" button.

Config Save Button

Use this button to save a new config file. User can create as many config files as required and they can
be located anywhere and have any name. The default config file, which the software looks for at startup,
is always in the basefolder\Config location and has the name "config_default.ini". The boolean button
above the "Config Save" button can toggle between YES and NO, where yes means that when the user
saves a new config file (any name, any location), the software will create two new files: (1) it overwrites
the default config file with the new settings, plus (2) it creates a new file with the user's selected name
and description. If the user chooses to not change the default config file, change the boolean button to
"NO" and it only saves the one newly created file. [Note: Another way to change the default config
outside of the program is to simply copy-paste an existing config file to the location of the default config
file and rename the newly copied file as "config_default.ini"].
*User can create custom description of config
file for better identification
