Details

If the file you specify does not exist on the USB flash drive, this command creates the file.

For options that save more than one item of time information, each item is comma-delimited. For

example, the default format is date, time, and fractional seconds for each reading.

The file extension .csv is appended to the filename if necessary. Any file extension other than .csv

generates an error.

The index column entry in the .csv file starts at 1 for each append operation.

Examples of valid destination file names:

buffer.saveappend(bufferVar, "/usb1/myData")

buffer.saveappend(bufferVar, "/usb1/myData.csv")

Invalid destination filename examples:

buffer.saveappend(bufferVar, "/usb1/myData.")

— The period is not followed by csv.

buffer.saveappend(bufferVar, "/usb1/myData.txt")

— The only allowed extension is .csv. If .csv is not assigned, it is automatically added.

Example 1

buffer.saveappend(MyBuffer, "/usb1/myData.csv")

Append reading and default time information from a buffer named MyBuffer to a file named myData.csv on

the USB flash drive.

Example 2

buffer.saveappend(MyBuffer, "/usb1/myDataRel.csv", buffer.SAVE_RELATIVE_TIME)

Append readings and relative timestamps from MyBuffer to a file named myDataRel.csv on the USB flash

drive.

Example 3

buffer.saveappend(defbuffer1, "/usb1/defbuf1data", buffer.SAVE_RAW_TIME, 1, 10)

Append the readings and raw time stamps for points 1 to 10 from defbuffer1 to a file named

defbuf1data on the USB flash drive.
