N - .NEW File: None
.New File [None ]
There are some special applications that can be used to automatically download data from the
XL™ over the serial port via modem or some other type of communication equipment. The
XL™ can be setup to log data to a special file called a .NEW file. The data will be stored in both
the main file and in the .NEW file. A PC or other device can easily be programmed to collect
data from the XL™ by issuing the “DUMPNEWDATA” command. The data in the .NEW file
will be transmitted to the system issuing the command. The .NEW file will be terminated with 3
NULL characters making it easy for the other system to know the end of file has been received.
At this point the system issuing the commands could send the “ERASENEWDATA” command
