ETHERNET INTERFACE CONFIGURATION – FTP
The FTP button allows you to configure the options related to the FTP services. There are two types of FTP related
functionality to choose from in the FieldLogger: client and server.
As a server, FieldLogger allows for an external client to connect to it in order to download logged data, both from the SD
card as well as from the internal memory. For this, you must configure the connection and access data, like user name
(maximum of 10 characters), password (maximum of 10 characters) and port for the connection.
As a client, it can automatically connect to an FTP server to send data from its logging memory (internal or SD card).
This can either be done once a day at a set time, or many times a day (from firmware version 1.50 on) in a configurable
time interval. This way, you must configure the access parameters so FieldLogger will be able to access the server, like
user (maximum of 50 characters) and password (maximum of 10 characters), in addition to the IP address or server
name (in case you enabled the DNS – name being up to 50 characters) and the server’s port. Besides that, since
firmware version 1.40, you can configure the format of the file created by the download: binary (standard) or CSV
(comma separated value) and also select the option that deletes the logging files after the download (valid only when
logging into an SD card).
