HANtune has the option to write and read data received from target communication into a log file. The logged parameter values are written into a .csv file.
To start recording signals, enable it by going to “Communication -> Enable Datalogging” or click on the log file button at the bottom status bar.
When logging is active, the log file button will display the logfile name:
The name of the log file can partially be changed by going to “Communication -> Modify Datalog Filename”.
The current date and time will automatically be appended to the filename each time a new logging is started.
The log file will be saved (default) in the “log” subfolder folder in the HANtune folder. If desired, this folder can be changed by going to "Preferences -> User Preferences". Type or browse your desired folder in the "Log Location" field.
Using a spreadsheet capable of reading .csv format, you can examine a log file.

The slider can be used to navigate within the logfile. Dragging the slider will move the display of the values accordingly. The value
