What triggers flight logging?

What triggers flight logging? I seem to have a lot of logs created when I turn the system on to update or show the screens off.

It would be nice for the pilot to be able to set some criteria for logging, such as airspeed, rpm, distance traveled (like not log the flight from the fuel pumps to my hanger). The system could log everything it wants to and then save or discard them based on the criteria.

I can see it deleting the unwanted logs when you enter the system to down load logs. Perhaps it would ask at that time if you want to delete logs that don't meet your criteria.

The user data logs do not doesn't distinguish between in-flight and on ground. It logs at the requested interval whenever the display is on. One thing you can do without on-board pre-processing is to filter the data using a spreadsheet program (excel or similar). You could pretty easily filter your rows on GPS ground speed or IAS to get (nearly) the same results. You'd ultimately end up with less possible data stored for a full data log, but that would be about the only tradeoff.
