CSK_MultiDataLogger

Short description

Module to store / log data like files or images.

Typically, the feature of this module is used like this (check also main script of this module):

1) Setup
- Set instance to configure via 'setSelectedInstance'
- Set data mode and storage path via 'setDataMode' and 'setPath'.
- Set type of data or image via 'setDataType' or 'setImageType'.
- If it should store data in a CSV-formatted file, you should set the CSV filename via 'setCSVFilename', the CSV labels via 'setCSVLabels'. Additionally, choose mode for 'setSaveOnlyChanges' and 'setSaveDataDirectly'.
- Set an event to receive the data / image to store via 'setRegisterEvent'. This event should provide as first parameter the data to store and as second parameter an optional filename (2nd parameter not needed, if data type is 'csv'). Otherwise, it will use the timestamp as filename.
