Description of the problem


Sometimes there is a need to simultaneously measure and export data when using multifile storing (for example, for measurements that cannot be interrupted).


Description of the solution


The solution is to use a sequencer while running two instances of DewesoftX. We will use one instance for multifile storing. The second instance will run the sequence, which will monitor the storing folder and export every new datafile. See the instructions below. 


First, in the settings, choose the option "Allow multiple instances of Dewesoft".


Download the files from our Google Drive.


Start the first instance and set up the multifile storing.  


Start the second instance and open the downloaded sequence and two batch files. The sequence will monitor the folder that the multifiles will be saved in and export the files immediately after they are generated.


In the sequence, three folder paths need to be edited to point to your data folder:







Additionally, export parameters need to be defined for desired requirements, according to the manual: https://manual.dewesoft.com/x/setupmodule/extensions/auto-export



In the first instance, start the storing.

In the second instance, start the sequence. When observing the local Export folder (for example: "C:\DewesoftX\Exports"), you should see the export files being generated.
