I had purchased a microSD card shield from sparkfun and I wish to do data logging to read 2 MPU6050. I wished to have sampling frequency of 100Hz, so I came across one example from Greiman about lowlatencylogger. Using his example and SDFat library instead of SD library, I do can get very good sampling frequency, however, I cannot terminate the data logging at will.
I tried to add a switch to set a condition where if the arduino read the switch, then it will start truncating the file. But so far no result. So can anyone help me??
the code that I am using
#include <SPI.h>
#include <SdFat.h>
#include <SdFatUtil.h>
#include "Wire.h"
#include "I2Cdev.h"
#include "MPU6050.h"

// User data functions. Modify these functions for your data items.
#include "UserDataType.h" // Edit this include file to change data_t.

Wire.begin();
// set I2C 400 kHz

Serial.println(F("Using Wire"));
#elif I2CDEV_IMPLEMENTATION == I2CDEV_BUILTIN_FASTWIRE
