Thanks. Log files are now being created with names like DeviceOne00001.txt.
Can the sequence number (00001) be removed from file name?

My Data Logger Suite is collecting data from 12 devices connected to single virtual PC serial port. Collected data is stored on PC Hard Drive in form of Log file. Used method for log file creation is Each data packet in different file. Each received data packet contains string name of device that has send packet. I would like to use that name from data packet when naming log file.

1. Is it possible to dynamically assign log file prefix based on ASCII parser values? Something like:
File name prefix = Device[ParserVariableName]
Resulting in log files names like DeviceOne.txt, DeviceTwo.txt etc.   

2. If not, can it be done with Script Plug In?

You may try our Data Logger Suite that combines both products.

Thank you for suggestion. I did try out the Data Logger Suite and so far it seems it will do the job. Only thing that doesn't work is Log deletion for PDF files. It works fine with Binary files.

Is PDF Log deletion supported in Data Logger Suite?

Hello support team!

My goal is to capture printer data using Serial Printer Logger and store it in PDF file. I would like to store each print form in separate file. To achieve this I have set New file option under Log file section to Each data packet in different file. However, I can find where to define beginning and end of data packet. Help states that if I don't define parser, data will be split with 300 ms timeout. Where do I find parser in SPL? There is Log packing plug-in but I can't find it on your site for download.

I have also tried using Advanced Serial Data Logger. Here I am able to define data packet in parser module. However, it is not possible to define logging in PDF format.

My data packet always begins with "ROC" and ends with "#0D#0C".


 

Hi,

I am reading print out from device on COM2. The print out has format looking something like this:

Load number: 000007#0A
#0D#0A
#0DTicket Number     Preset      Volume#0A
#0D-----------------------------------#0A
#0D000012              000100     GRS 000099#0A
#0D000013              000150     GRS 000151#0A
#0D#0C
 
I am trying to fill database based on print out with following rows:
7;12;100;99
7;12;150;151

I can't use only fixed position parsing because number of Tickets in print out is variable. So I came out following idea:

1. On COM2 configuration use entire print out as datapacket and parse only "Load number" with fixed position.
2. Redirect datapacket to COM3.
3. Parse "Tickets" in configuration on COM3.
4. Use Aggregation to merge data from COM2 and COM3 and export it to database.

However, problem is that redirected data doesn't get parsed when it is received on COM3. It is like you can't parse same data twice, even if it is on separate COMs.

Is it possible to parse redirected data?
