Download Logged Events
A summary of available logged events is shown in the MoTeC ADR Manager window whenever an ADR is connected,
see Figure 2.
The destination folders for downloaded event files (.CSV) and log image files (.mtcadrimg) can be configured via the
Tools > Options menu.
To download all events from the ADR (cannot download individual events):
1. Select the Events > Download menu option.
The downloaded events are stored in a single log image file (.mtcadrimg). When the download is complete, the
individual event files (.CSV) are generated and a summary of created folders and files is displayed.
Notes on the event files (.csv):
• An individual event file (.csv) is created for each event that was downloaded.
• The file name contains the event time, date, ADR serial number and a sequence number, as shown in the
following example.
ADR_LOG_SN11_20130124_135734_001.CSV
_SN11 ADR serial number 11
_20130124 Event date Jan 24 2013
_135734 Event time 13:57:34 (UTC)
_001 Unique sequence number, incremented each time the same event file is generated.
Notes on the log image files (.mtcadrimg):
• The log image file name contains the ADR serial number and a sequence number. The sequence number is
incremented each time the log image is downloaded for the same ADR serial number.
• The log image file contains all the downloaded events on the ADR, and the ADR configuration at the time of
download.
• The event files can be regenerated from this log image at any time.
Regenerate Logged Events from the Image File
1. Select File > Convert Logging Image menu option in ADR Manager.
