and pressure, setpoints and spectroscopic information. This information is
generally not useful to the user, but can be useful for diagnostic purposes and is
store in the directory C:\Picarro\G2000\Log\Archive\DataLog_Private
\[year]\[month]\[day]\[hour].
For more information about how to include various columns of data from the
DataLog_Private in the C:\UserData DataLog files, please contact Picarro.
The current data file can be found in C:\Picarro\G2000\Log\DataLogger\. Within
this directory, there are subdirectories for DataLog_Private, DataLog_User and
DataLog_User_Sync. Similarly, the archive directory has subdirectories arranged
by file type. The subdirectories are further organized by
\[year]\[month]\[day]\[hour].
To keep the data files easy to manage and to limit the size of individual files and
directories, the software automatically generates new files each time the
instrument is powered up and also at midnight each night. When new files are
created at midnight, their file name will contain the new date and a time of 00:00.
For example if the system was started at 10:29 am on 2/5/2007 it would create a
file named 20070205\CKBDS01-20070205-1029-UserLog.dat. Then at midnight
a new file will be created CKBDS01-20070206-0000-UserLog.dat.
File Archival and Automatic Deletion of Old Files
The analyzer can automatically compress (zip) and archive old files as mentioned
above. This operation is controlled by the ini file: C:\Picarro\G2000\
AppConfig\Config\Archiver\Archiver.ini. For each file type, there are various items
along with some recommended default settings which may vary by file type:
Directory = C:/UserData/DataLog_Sync
Optionally specifies which directory to find files to archive.
MaxCount = -1
Specifies how many files to keep. A setting of -1 indicates that there is no
maximum number of files. Generally -1 is used in conjunction with a maximum
size limit, below.
MaxSize_MB = 1500
Specifies that a maximum of 1.5 GB of data is to be kept before the system
begins to delete old data.
Compress = True/False
