The Get function allows you to retrieve an array of information from the data logging files. The way the data is entered into this array can be controlled. For example, the minimum, maximum, or average values may be taken from the file for any given time period.
An alternative method of data logging can be used when the amount of data to retain is very limited. Real time trends can be considered data logging. Within VTS, this is usually done by keeping the data in an array that is updated periodically.
The FRead, FWrite, SRead, and SWrite functions can be used as an alternative to the Save and Get statements to implement custom file formats.
The section that follows discusses the retrieval of data using the "GetLog" module.
