BMSSuite - How to log system data to files

Useful when analysis of telemetry data feeds can pinpoint a problem or trend. A number of different files can be enabled to store the data.

Will only run when the pc is connected to the supervisor and is powered with 12v.

 

Step 3 - Start the processing agent

NB: all or one file writer can be enabled.

The column for Status confirms that the processor is running, #num outline how many records will be appended at the next scheduled writing event to minimise hard disk usage with last WriteDate listed. 

 

Step 4 - Navigate to the file location 

NB: stored in My Documents > Batrium > Logs > [Date] > Filename.txt

Example file

Additional information

File	Notes
CellMon_001.txt	unique files for each cellmon with comprehensive interval coverage
Pack_2697.txt	consolidate summary metric every 40mS
Charger_10899_2.txt	records energy measurements every second for each charger
SiCan10899_2.txt	records SiCan supervisor metrics every second for each charger
SiMon10899_1.txt	records SiMon supervisor metrics every half second for each cellmon chain
CellStats_2697.txt	records a number of the key statistics

Extracts of each file with the header and a sample record
