| Entry | Description
|
| DataPath | This entry specifies the path where the recorder files are stored. The path can be relative to the project path, or absolute. If an absolute path is specified only physical drives are allowed. If you have a substituted drive g: on the path c:\users\gseos, for example, and you want to store recorder data in g:\data you have to specify c:\users\gseos\data. Note that changing this setting does not take effect until you restart GSEOS. This setting is also modified using the Recorder Settings dialog.

|
| FileSize | The entry FileSize specifies the length of a recorder file in kB. When the size limit is reached the current recorder file is closed and a new file is opened.
|
|
|
| Prefix | In automatic mode the automatically generated file name will be prefixed with the value under this entry.
|
| IdleCheckPeriod | When playing back data in the fast forward or fast backward mode the system throttles the playback speed depending on the system load. By default an idle check is performed every 10 blocks. If the system is still busy no data is played back until the timer expires again and the idle check is performed again. You can adjust the number of blocks to play back before performing this idle check. The larger the number the fast the playback will be at the expense of system responsiveness. The default value is 10.
|
| FastPlaybackBlockCnt | When playing back data in the fast forward or fast backward mode one block gets played back every time the playback timer expires. You can adjust this setting to play back more blocks and therefore speeding up the playback of data. As with the IdleCheckPeriod setting this will increase playback speed at the expense of system responsiveness. The default value is 1.
|
| Compress | If this setting is 'Yes' compression is turned on. Depending on the data contents you will be able to save significantly more data (3-20 times) within the same file size. You might want to adjust the FileSize setting accordingly. By default Compression is turned on, if you want to turn it off set it to 'No'. The default is 'Yes'.
|
| Record | The value has to be the block name to be recorded. You need one Record entry per block you want to record. Typically these entries are set interactively from the Recorder Settings Dialog.
|
| Playback | The value has to be the block name to be played back. You need one Playback entry per block you want to put on the playback list. Typically these entries are set interactively from the Recorder Settings Dialog.
|
| Timebase | This setting allows you to configure a time base for the recorder data. You can specify multiple different time bases. You need one Timebase entry per time base you want to configure. The value of this entry is the name of the time base section that configures this time base. See also in the [Timebase] chapter for the individual time base configuration options and a sample.
