While you're at it, it would be useful to know which files are associated with which downloads. Could you create a list of these?
Page 6-35 of the PG 600-00300-001 lists 7 types of logs (System, Flight, Engine, Event, Voltage, GPS, Configuration). The engine log is for fuel flow so would only appear if configured. The photo on page 6-36 only shows 5 incl engine log, with the GPS and config logs missing. I assume that this is because the photo is from a pre-10.1 software (hint: manual update needed here).
I have an RMA coming up, and backed up all possible files to a usb in preparation. I made the mistake of checkmarking all the logs and backing them all up to a single usb, along with the checklists, settings, waypoints, and routes. Now I'm having some trouble separating the configuration log from the settings and waypoints. Most of the logs are obvious. There are 5 csv files with names corresponding to the log types: ENGINE, EVENTS, FLIGHT, GPS, SYSTEM, VOLTS. The Configuration log is not identified as such. There is a file called SYSCFG.TXT, but it only contains 4 parameters (Fuel type (AVGas), GPS Select (Auto), Airframe (Fixed-Wing), External TAWS (no).
There are many txt files which appear to be related to config since they have names like AIRCFT, BLOCK0, BLOCK1, ... BLOCK4, CHARTS, CNSAUD, COMSET, DIMSET, DISP0, DISP1, ... DISP4, FMSS0, FMSS1, ... FMSS4, FRQLST, GDLSET, ...
Some of these look like set up settings from maintenance mode, but the values appear strange. For example, the XPDR.TXT file doesn't have any information that corresponds to my aircraft or transponder connection (AXP340). In the AIRCFT.TXT file, the aircraft call sign is incorrect (one digit wrong ... incorrect factory setting or installer mistake?).
I don't have any checklists or routes defined yet since this is a recent 10.1 installation, but I do have waypoints defined and can't find them in the downloaded TXT files, so would be interested to know the name of that file. There is no DSF file on the download.
There are several exec files with date stamp: BK150801.000 - BK150801.004. Are these perhaps the config logs or separate debugging info not listed in the PG?
