EasyParse format

Loggers may also support a data format known colloquially as 'EasyParse', and formally as 'calbin00'. In EasyParse format, each of the three major types of deployment information is stored in its own separate dataset. This has the benefit that parsing two of the three types (sample data and events) can be greatly simplified, with the penalty that a single download operation will not produce a complete, self-contained deployment record: if this is a requirement, it becomes the responsibility of the user and/or host software.
 

The assigment of datasets to the stored information is as follows:

1. the deployment header is in dataset 2,

2. the sample data is in dataset 1, and

3. events are in dataset 0.

The readdata command acting on each of these three datasets as required is used to download the information: use the memformat type command to determine the format of the data currently in memory. Host applications using the EasyParse format may elect not to download the deployment header at all; if only a small subset of the information it contains is needed, it may be easier to determine that using other logger commands.
