2.3.3 Logger Files Retrieve

Logger Files under the PC9000 tools menu allows the user to check the
programs stored in CPU Flash memory and the files stored on the PCMCIA
cards. Any of the files shown in logger files can be copied to the computer by
highlighting the file and pressing the retrieve button. Data files in the CR5000
CPU and Flash memory are not shown.

The retrieved data file is stored on the computer in the same form that it was
stored on the PC card (TOB2). This format generally needs to be converted to
another format for analysis (Section 2.3.4)
