Can VI Logger full version collect slower than 10 Hz?

I am using Logger Lite to collect data over prolonged periods (weeks to months) and would be happy with data collection rates of several seconds to several minutes between points.  Logger Lite will not allow collection slower than 10 hz.  The product sheet for Logger Full just says it supprts "low-speed and high-speed" logging.  What does this mean?  Does this mean that I can collect slower than 10 Hz?  Thanks...

Hi!

 

I have been looking into your issue, and I imagine I understand why you would want to do this.  You must be getting hundreds of results in a row that obtains the same value.  In looking into what these "low-speed and high-speed" logging rates would be, I have found that they again range between 10 Hz and 60 Hz.  Therefore, for your application it doesn't seem that VI logger is the right solution for you.  I would recommend looking into some of our other solutions.  For instance, if you were to use a version of LabVIEW, you would be able to create an application that could obtain values at most any rate you desired.  Also, SignalExpress is another method that should have much more control than VI Logger. 

 

I hope this information has been helpful.  I would start by checking out the following product pages, and going from there.

 

Regards,

This can be done with LabVIEW SignalExpress which is NI's newest data logging software.  Inside your LabVIEW SignalExpress project you can set your sample rate for any acquistion speed you need.
