Chapter 5 - Project files

We strongly recommend saving project files so your settings and trace data can be restored and reused.

Description

Projects are compressed binary files which contain the GoLogic configuration and the open trace, reference, and scope data in a single unit. Projects store each window's position, marker positions, bookmarks, scroll positions, plus the active PlugIns and their configuration. The complete GoLogic session is restored when loading project files.

Saving projects

Save project files using the Toolbar’s

button or the "File > Save Project..." menu command. Project files use the PRJ file extension (which stands for "PRoJect").

The project file saves the active GoLogic session exactly how it appears on screen. If you only want to save the GoLogic configuration with no trace data, simply close all open data before saving the project file.

Version 5.x and later can read (but not save) 4.x and older setup, trace, and project files.

Opening projects

Open project files using the Toolbar’s

button or the "File > Open Project..." menu command. The menu's "File > Recent Projects" feature conveniently lists the past eight projects you saved.

Opening a project restores the GoLogic setup and all data that was open when the project was saved. All window positions plus the active PlugIns and their configurations are also restored. PlugIns which are not installed are ignored.

Closing projects

Close the project using the "File > Close > Project..." menu command. Closing a project closes all open data and resets all setup parameters to their default values.

Importing old projects, setup, and trace

Import project, setup, and trace files from version 4.22 through 4.34 software using the "File > Import..." menu commands...

Setup and trace file from software versions prior to 4.22 cannot be imported. Open and save these files using the 4.34 software, then import the converted files with the 5.x or later software.

The 4.34 and below software can be installed on the same system as the 5.x software. However, do not run them at the same time unless one version uses demo mode. If both try to access the GoLogic hardware at the same time, the GoLogic hardware will stop responding and must be disconnected from the power and USB.
