+====TextFile====
+The TextFile output module allows you to write data to a simple text file.
+Note that this text file will contain only the //live values// currently being read - it doesn't maintain a log of events or values (see [[LogFile]] if you want that).
+This is often used with older systems reading data through FTP.

+|**filename**||The full path to the file to write|
+===Example===
+<code>
+[
+   {
+       "method": "textfile",
+       "filename": "c:\tmp\myfile.txt"
+   }
+]
+</code>
+//The above example would send values to a plain text file at **c:\tmp\myfile.txt** on Windows systems//.
+===Other Modules===
