Data logging

The Data Logger records, at regular intervals, readings taken by your vessel’s equipment, an active Man overboard alarm, and the 5 closest AIS targets.

First responderData loggingThe Data logger is enabled by default and records data to a CSV file saved to a MicroSD card inserted into a card slot on the MFD. A new CSV file is created every hour up to a maximum of 73 files (72 hours of data), after which the first file will be overwritten by the next new Data logging file.

If the MicroSD card is removed or reaches capacity, Data logging will be suspended and a notification will be displayed onscreen.

Note
  • On MFD networks only the datamaster MFD can be used to perform data logging.

  • For optimal performance, Do NOT use cartography cards for Data logging.

The status of the Data logger is displayed in the status area of the Homescreen using icons.
