Transferring Logger Files

Configuring Transfer with Username and Password - NOT RECOMMENDED

In vLog 4.10 and later, the Logger File Creation Report feature was added to
eliminate the need for using usernames and passwords to ensure validity of
transferred logger files. However, some existing customers with VL-Series log-
gers prefer to use these usernames and passwords. To enable vLog to prompt
the user for username and password during a logger file transfer for verifica-
tion, select the Prompt for username and password when transferring sam-
ples checkbox.

Note: THIS SECURITY OPTION IS NOT RECOMMENDED.

THIS SECURITY OPTION DOES NOT APPLY TO BATCH
TRANSFERS.

To configure the username and password prompting option - NOT

RECOMMENDED:

1. Select Tools>Options, then choose the Transfer tab.

2. Select the Prompt for username and password when transferring sam-

ples checkbox.

3. Click OK.
