Hi,
I’m downloading data to a CSV file at 2Hz using a JS110 and the latest UI. However, the data stopped after 17hrs. Is there some settings in the UI that I need to adjust for it to record continuously?
Thanks and regards,
Luke
Hi @LukeM - The Joulescope UI is designed to record statistics data to a CSV file indefinitely. The host computer can sometimes cause problems, like updates, backups, and virus scans. If you want, you can share an issue report, and we can take a look. In the UI, select Help → Report Issue. In the issue report, include a link to this topic and the date & time when the problem occurred.
For long term captures, you can disconnect networking on the host computer to prevent updates and network backups. You can also disable power management and disable any periodic tasks, like virus scans.
An alternative is to use downsample_logging.py. Unlike the UI, this uses the on-instrument statistics which require much less USB traffic, which can help with robustness. It also provides a resume option.
