dlog module

Hi

can some please explain me what is the difference between using the DLOG module and just using the Graph option when monitoring a signal on CCS? 

best regards

mark

  • Hi Mark,
    I'm not very familiar with the DLOG module but it looks like it would allow you to log system variables to a buffer in target memory. You would still need to determine the transport type to get the data to the host and how to display the data. Hopefully someone more familiar with this can confirm this.

    With the CCS graphs, the transport (via JTAG) and display of data is done by CCS. This would be more of a "turn-key" solution than the above, but with less flexibility.

    Hope this helps

  • Hi Ki

    thank you very much for your help.

    i think there is something very basic that i probably dont understand... for example :
    i am trying to view my motor speed , so i set the sampling rate to be 1khz , the acquisition Buffer Size to be 1 , and the display data size to 200 .
    from my understanding the graph will show a window of 200 ms of my sampled variable (like real scope) , but its shows a data plot of couple seconds...
    maybe i need to adjust more settings?

    can you please explain me this issue?
