To log alerts or quick notes in a data set you have to create a manual log column. For example, to log your quick notes in a logging set:
1. Open the logging set view for the desired logging set.
2. On the main page, click on the Manual button.
3. Enter Note and hit OK. This will add note to the channels to log table.
Now notes will be logged with the file. Alerts can also be logged by specifying Alert instead of Note. Both of these are strings so can not be used in binary mode logging.
