 +Cloud Logging adds the ability to log data to the MathWorks ThingSpeak cloud in addition to logging to the SD card and the Chart.
 +
 +This guide describes how to get cloud logging working for the OpenLogger using MathWorks ThingSpeak service.

 +Once the channel has been configured, click the "Save" button. The channel will have been created and a new page will have opened. For now, make note of the Channel ID at the top of the page, visit the "API Keys" tab and note the Write API Key. These will be used to configure the OpenLogger to communicate with the ThingSpeak service.

 +On waveformslive.com, click on the connected OpenLogger to connect to the device and navigate to the //Instrument Panel//. In the control panel to the right, select 'Cloud' in the Log To drop-down. The UI will update with inputs for the API Key and Channel ID parameters, so input them now. Configure the OpenLogger log parameters as normal. When the OpenLogger has been configured, click the Log button.
