Change the Logging Settings

The provided logging configuration in the Base Map will provide 5 to 15
minutes of logging. If you would like to increase this time, you need to
reduce the number of channels logged, or reduce the logging rate for the
logged channels.

To change the logging configuration

See the relevant Power Control Strategy section to ensure the M400
Marine ECU stays powered while downloading the data.

1. Connect the ECU to the PC. See Connecting the ECU to a PC.

2. Open ECU Manager software.

3. On

the

File menu, click Save As and choose a new file name.

This will save the changes you are going to make in a new file and
prevent accidentally overwriting the standard Base Map.
