the file name ahead of time. Therefore, the %F option can be used to insert

the file name in the command line options.

After Any Data Collected – After data is collected by any means, and the

call is terminated for any reason (success or failure). The task is triggered

by a scheduled collection, by using a

Collect Now button, a datalogger

call-back, or another task that calls the associated station which causes any

data to be collected.

After File Retrieved – After a file is retrieved based on the datalogger’s

File Retrieval tab in the Setup Screen.

When the station’s

File Retrieval Mode (on the Setup Screen’s File

Retrieval tab) is set to Follow Scheduled Data Collection, the task is

triggered by a scheduled collection, by using a

Collect Now button, by a

datalogger call-back, or by another task that calls the associated station

and causes a file retrieval. An attempt to retrieve the file(s) will be made at

the scheduled time, only if scheduled collection is enabled. However,

when a manual poll/Collect Now is performed, an attempt to retrieve the

file(s) will be made regardless of whether scheduled collection is enabled

or not.

When the station’s File Retrieval Mode is set to New Schedule, only the

new schedule will trigger file retrieval and thus, the task. Attempts to

retrieve the file(s) will be made following the new schedule, whether

scheduled collection is enabled or not.
