How Do I Save Data To the Same File In Signal Express?

Problem:
I am acquiring data and doing analysis on that data. When I go to save the logs to file, they all save to different files. Can I save all my data to the same file?

Solution:
You can save all of your data to the same file. However, you will have to go through and reorganize the data, because you will not be able to control columns or rows. The key is to save the data, not the logs. The following steps will explain how this can be done.

1. After the step where the data is collected, right click and navigate to Load/Save Signals>>Analog (or Digital) Signal>>Save to ASCII/LVM
2. In the File settings tab, choose an export file path. Choose Append to file. Choose Generic ASCII (.txt). In the X values, choose One column per channel.



3. In the Signals tab, add all the signals you would like to write to file.



4. Add another step in the process to analyze your data.
5. After the analysis, repeat steps 2 & 3. Make sure to choose the same filepath.
The data will be saved to the same file, but will later need to be organized within that file.
