I'm not sure this is the best place to post this question, but I am looking to start/stop datalogging from inside a real-time sequence (which I don't think you can do). 

Specifically, I want to change a value in an RT sequence, wait for things to stabilize and then log a very short amount of data (a few samples), then repeat until I have an entire channel sweep of data (just without the transient behavior).  Is there any way to do this?  I would like to avoid heavy post-processing of my data.

Thanks!

Yeah its possible. When you set up your data log, specify a trigger channel like a user channel or something. Then pass that channel into your RT sequence as a parameter. Then inside your rt seq set that channel value when you want to log samples.

Stephen,

Thanks for the quick response.  That sounds easier than I thought.  That will be very helpful when we get it working.
