Export Data
Crawler.Companion gives you two ways to get measurement data off an Edge device — without needing a browser or direct access to the device’s web interface.
Edge devices record measurement data continuously. Exporting lets you retrieve that data — either as a CSV file for local processing, or directly into Deepview for visual analysis.
A run is a defined measurement session stored on the device — it has a clear start time and end time. Runs are created automatically when the device starts and stops a recording. Exporting by runs lets you pick specific sessions instead of filtering by a time range.
Deepview is a browser-based analysis tool that visualizes signal data as interactive charts. It is connected to your Hub account and lets you explore and compare measurements in detail. When you export to Deepview, Companion transfers the data directly — results open in your browser, no additional software required.
The Deepview option is only available when your Hub account has Deepview access enabled. If it is grayed out, contact your administrator.
Both methods let you choose between two export formats:
CSV — saved as a file on your PC · Deepview — opens directly in browser, no additional software required
Use this method when you want to export all signal data recorded within a specific start and end time — regardless of individual runs.
