# Database Panel
The 'Database' panel is located on the left-hand side of the application. It is used to control the main functionality of the software. The main features are grouped into three (four including StreamLog) sections, navigated by the tabs at the application's top. The primary tabs can be seen below:
| **Local Projects** | **Logger Structure** | **Recording Analysis** |
| -------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------- |

### Local Projects:
The 'Projects' tab creates and administers the configurations for every data logging application.
### Logger Structure:
The 'Logger' tab becomes active when a data logger is connected to the computer. It then displays the current configuration of the data logger and provides several Rebel data logger settings and features.
### Recording Analysis:
The 'Analysis' tab contains the data handling and analysis features incorporated within DiaLog.
The operation of the main features of each of the 'Database Panel' tabs and the complete process of performing data logging is explored in the Quick Start Guide.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://docs.influxtechnology.com/support_guides/dialog-user-guide/dialog-software-manual/getting-started/software-introduction/database-panel.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
