Data Log Viewers
Once we have log files being captured, we need to use a tool to view the data in human readable form. Although there is an older Data Log Tool that can dump log files in CSV format, AdvantageScope is the preferred tool to use.
When running on the robot, log files are saved on the RoboRio. The best method is to insert a USB flash drive, formatted as FAT32, into the RoboRio before powering it up. This drive can then be pulled out after powering down and inserted into a laptop for viewing the data. If there is no flash drive installed, the data will be saved to RoboRio internal flash and will have to be downloaded over the network using the Data Log Tool or directly through AdvantageScope.
When running in simulation mode, log files are saved in the logs folder of your project.
