Just click on "record signal using go to resut windows. The track are automatically record.

For connecting, DC channels, Can Bus, Xpods,(...) we can advice to use the connect input and do a drag and drop into the recorder.

* [[Image:Reports_Tools_Ribbons_343.png]] Available: Display the maximum possible recording duration depending the current recorder setup. Read only. The max duration is computed from the free space of the selected hard disk, the number of tracks (and their corresponding sampling frequency) and the number of recordsNote in time to stop, the max duration may also be limited by the local available memory (PC/Analyzer) for the description blocks.

* '''Signal bandwidth''': frequency bandwidth of the recorded track. This value is equal to the sampling frequency of the recorded signal divided by 2.56 (this factor was chosen in order to avoid any aliasing problem during frequency analysis). For the DC input this setting is forced to the input setting DC input sampling value. For the External Synchro input this setting is forced to the input setting input sampling value. For the input, the user can choose between the 2 frequencies bandwidths defined in the next settings.

|Acquisition begins on the start event and stops when the specified duration has been recorded. The user with the Stop command can stop the acquisition at any moment. If the Number of records is greater than 1, a new record is started with a new start event. When all the specified records have been recorded the plug-in goes in the Stopped state (the Stop command also forces the plug-in the Stopped state).<br><br><br>

This sub-module is used to you define the start and stop conditions of the signal to be recorded.

The recorder support up to 4 different bandwidths:

The n''Inputs selection'' window '''allows the use of 2 different sampling rates for the dynamic inputs'''. It gathers inputs with the same physical quantity into groups, maintaining the same sampling into each group.

When inputs are associated with '''the analysis plug-in, it adjusts its analysis bandwidth to match the inputs ones'''. Mixing input bandwidths in one analysis plug-in lead to set its bandwidth to the lowest one.

Deactivating the recorder<nowiki>'</nowiki>s ''Autobandwidth'' allows managing the dynamic inputs sampling from the recorder. Out of the case of recording signal at lower frequency than the analysis, it is recommended to keep the recorder ''Autobandwidth'' active.

Arming of the recorder creates a backup of your record settings. Arming the recorder secure the record allowing an easy recover of the data whatever is the record ending cause.

The recorder is armed automatically when pressing the RUN This operation may take a couple of seconds.. It is possible to pre-arm the recorder allowing an immediate start of the recorder. This is available from the ''Measurement'' tab of the ''Vision'' interface:

The recorded data benefit of specific safety tools that allow recovering the data in case of failure during the record.

There are 2 type of recovery:

* Manual recovery: in the case of the initial project have been cancelled from your PC, or have been recorded with another PC, or if the project has been renamed. The recovering tools are available into the hard drive manager called from the ''Home ''tab/''Disk'' group (''Manage'')

* Automatic recover: in the case of an unexpected stop of the analyzer; i.e; during a record, at the end of the record or before saving the measurement.

If an unexpected stop occurred (power out …), signals will be recovered and only few seconds will be lost, depending on the configuration of your record (sampling frequency, slow inputs).

For example at 1 ch @ 51.2 kS/s, a maximum of 2.5 s could be lost.
