8.2.1 Log File: CSV Format

CSV (comma-separated values) is a format available for storing logged data into a file.

For CSV, the output file will contain a header row listing the names of the respective data columns, followed by rows containing the actual data. A comma is used to separate values for the individual columns.

Example: CSV file produced for the DVRT session shown in 6 DVRT Protocol.
