Before loading a Datalog from disk, you should load the Maps that were saved with it so that
the programming software knows the set-up of the ECU and can calibrate the data properly.
Do not load a Datalog when ONLINE to the ECU, or else the Maps you load will
overwrite the Maps in the ECU. If you want to view a saved Datalog, switch to
OFFLINE mode, load the appropriate map, and then load the Datalog.

do not have a dot matrix printer, print the datalog to a file and then print the file from DOS or
from a word processor / editor. Also, the text file can be loaded into a spreadsheet if extra
analysis is required.

The information in the datalog is divided into pages of data. The total number of pages in the
current datalog is displayed. The software will ask for the numbers of the first and last pages
you want to print. If you want to print the entire datalog , enter 1 for the first page, and the
number displayed as the last page.
