Getting more help

If you run into a problem with your logger, you can click Request help... from the Help Menu to contact the support team at LogTag® Recorders. When you select this command, LogTag® Analyzer will collect information from your system, that assists in diagnosing issues.

LogTag® Analyzer generates some or all of the following files:

  • diagnostics.txt.gz

    This file includes information about your operating system version, installed languages, temporary folders, LogTag® Analyzer version numbers and other system related information in a compressed format

  • UserProfile.profile.gz

    This file contains the settings for LogTag® Analyzer in a compressed format and can help identify issues with path names and sharing settings

  • AnalyzerErrorLog.dat

    This file contains LogTag® Analyzer's error log

  • XXDownloadFilenameXX.ltm

    LogTag® Analyzer generates a special download file for any USB logger and any logger or indicator in an interface attached to the PC. These file(s) will have a *.ltm file extension (Logger Total Memory), which can only be viewed with special diagnostic software by LogTag® Recorders, but not with LogTag® Analyzer software

    While the software is collecting this information, a message is displayed. It is important you do not remove any loggers during this process.
