Since version 7.5.227 it is now possible in Automation Mode to save "trend files" as binary (*.irtrend) and in a format useable outside of the ThermoView software (*.irtrend.csv).


Binary format has been part of the software since inception with.csv format requested by a number of customers who wished to have process value log files.


Previously, it was only possible to manually created .csv by opening a .irtrend file and manually "saving as" .csv - taking considerable time and effort and needing to run ThermoView as a second instance.


Appending to the file is set as default with the option to disable that and create a new file each time trend recording is started:


Choose File Format via Save as type: and check if you don't want to append to file via Create new trend file every time.....
