  2. To access the logs directory, enter %temp%\movisens in the Windows Explorer address line; for SensorManager version 1.15.0 or newer enter %homepath%\movisens\log.
  3. There are two files we require - *_SensorManager.log and *_sensor_log_*.txt.
  4. Zip the files and email them to us together with the error description!

# Screenshot of Measurement opened in UnisensViewer

Please take a screenshot with the UnisensViewer:

  1. Open the data set with the UnisensViewer
  2. Make shure that the signal stateOfCharge.bin is visible.
  3. Please scale the X-axis first with the button:
    Scale X Axis

  5. Please choose a file name for the screenshots that clearly identifies them (e.g. serial number and start date/time).

Based on this information we can decide if it is necessary to send the sensors to us for further examination.
