ADC-20 and ADC-24 data loggers

Can I view captures on my smartphone or tablet?

PicoLog 6 has always been based on a framework that uses Chromium (Google’s open-

source browser) and Java, meaning it is already “browser ready”.

It couldn’t be easier to use! Navigate to the URL picolog.app in any browser and log

into your PicoLog Cloud account. This gives you instant and secure access to all your

live and saved Cloud captures on any internet-connected smart device, anywhere in the

world. Some browsers such as Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge make it possible to

“install” PicoLog Cloud as a PWA (progressive web app), so it will be available on your

home screen or desktop and work like a regular app.

Continuous capture, with or without network connection

Should your host PC lose network connection during a capture, PicoLog Cloud instantly

switches to use the PC’s own hard drive until the network connection is restored. Any

missing data is promptly synchronized back to the Cloud.

As always, PicoLog 6 in local capture mode is compatible with all PicoLog data loggers

and all PicoScope real-time oscilloscopes (with a sample rate limit of 1 kS/s). PicoLog

Cloud is compatible with the same instruments, except that the sample rate is limited to

1 S/s per channel.

Stream live Cloud capture data to your application with an API

Transferring captured data from a data logger software application to a third-party

application while the capture is running has been one of the longest outstanding

customer feature requests, and had been very difficult to implement until now. With

PicoLog Cloud data residing on a server, we’ve developed a simple server-side API that

allows programmers to request the live data in batches which is returned in a human-

and database-readable ASCII format.

This feature is particularly useful to users who want to add extra functionality such as

emailing alarms or captures, adding logger data

to existing databases, or displaying data in a

different way: fill tanks, percentage bars, throttle

gauges, large numerical displays and so on!

Once the Cloud capture is set up and acquiring

data, you enable public sharing for that capture

to generate an unsearchable URL containing a

unique ID for that capture on the PicoLog.app

server. The API contains just two calls:

•

Basic setup, channel IDs, last recorded value

and channel names.

•

Request a block of capture data with start

and end time parameters for the specified

channel(s)

The API is server-side and sends raw data to your custom application or database, so no

special software needs to be installed. Almost all relevant programming languages can

call the API URL, and simple code examples are available.

Although PicoLog Cloud is limited to 30-day captures in Cloud capture mode before it

overwrites the oldest data, you can use this API to transfer and back up your data to a

local or online database of your own.
