First Line: Model Name

Second Line: Data about your Model’s setup. This line is needed to allow sharing of your session log files with others.

Third line: header indicating what each of the data fields represents. In the current software, these columns are:

If “IsEvent” is 1, the record contains event data as well as regular data. Typical events are power-up (restart), and servo glitches.

Ignore the non-event fields when IsEvent is set to 1.

Event Codes in the “EventCode” field are as follows. Note that codes other than those below should be reported to Eagle Tree

Systems:

9 = ERROR_RESTART: The eLogger has been started or restarted (power was applied)

18 = ERROR_GPS_DATA_PACKET: GPS Data was received from the GPS Expander,

27 = ERROR_SPEKTRUM_DATA_PACKET: Data was received from the AR9000 Interface

Milliseconds indicates when each record was collected, in Milliseconds since the eLogger was turned on.

Advanced Software Features

There are many advanced features included with our software, available via the “Advanced” tab in the software. Some of these are

described below:

Set Logging Triggers

This feature lets you select events that will cause logging to start, such as elapsed time after power-up, or threshold readings for

amperage, RPM, Altitude, or when GPS fix is attained. Note that until the selected event occurs, the eLogger will be in “paused”

mode, and the LED will flash two blinks in a row. If you set a logging trigger, don’t forget about setting it, since it can be confusing if

the eLogger is not logging due to a disconnected sensor, etc.

Set Min/Max Value

This feature lets you select the Minimum and/or Maximum value that will be displayed and charted for a particular parameter. This

feature is useful to filter out “glitches” in the data, should they occur. Setting a maximum value for RPM, for example, will filter out

RPM values above the set value, which can improve the visualization of the data when charting.

Calibrate Pack Voltage and Amperage

The eLogger’s voltage and amperage measurement system is factory calibrated. If you’d prefer that the eLogger’s readings match

the readings of another instrument you are accustomed to using, the calibration feature is included. However, if your eLogger is

reading inaccurately, please see the troubleshooting section below before recalibrating.

Happy Modeling!!

Troubleshooting

Below is a list of problems that may be encountered, and steps to remedy them.

A good first step to troubleshooting, if you are able to connect your eLogger to your PC, is to download our latest software and update

the eLogger’s Firmware via “Hardware, Firmware Control.” Doing this will ensure that you have the latest software and firmware

available. Just click “Help, Download latest updates…” in the software to check to see if a newer version of our software is available.
