Extend Collection

Extend Latest will increase the length of a time-based data collection by 50%. You can select this option even as you are collecting data.

For example, the default time for a Stainless Steel Temperature probe is 180 seconds. If you choose Extend Collection, the run will be extended to 270 seconds. You can extend your run indefinitely-- 360 seconds will be extended to 405 seconds, and so on.

After selecting this option, the time that your run will be extended to is displayed next to Extend Latest in the Experiment menu.

This will not add data to a previous Data Set. To do that, you will need the Append to Latest option.
