Using PLX-DAQ for data logging - max. limit 64999 rows in excel

Hi, I am trying to log voltage value for a battery, using PLX-DAQ, which is continuously logged every 2 seconds.

The problem I am facing right now is that the excel sheet does not go ahead of 64999 values. When contacted to parallax, they say it is because PLXDAQ supports Excel 2003. I am using excel 2010.

So, is there any method to continue logging data for 10 days. Or any other application that could help.

Thanks in advance.

Just as speculation, any battery that really needs its voltage measured at 2 sec intervals will surely be dead long before the ten days are up. Conversely, any battery that can last ten days shouldn't need to be measured at two second intervals, but you can always send the results to an ordinary terminal programme, whose only limit would be the size of your hard drive. You can then transfer the data to Excel 2010

So, is there any method to continue logging data for 10 days.

Create a new file every day.

Duh balajipunde, this must be your lucky day :slight_smile:

I just finished reworking the "old" PLX DAQ and (among others) added the support to operate on more then the 65000 rows.

You can check out the new (fully downwards compatible version!) on the forum here: PLX-DAQ version 2 - now with 64 bit support! (and further new features) - Interfacing w/ Software on the Computer - Arduino Forum

Greeting and I would appreciate if you could give me some feedback on how it is working.
