PREFERENCES
In the Preferences screen you can change the way the software application is started, adapting it to the procedure that is
desired. The configurable options are:
•
Do Nothing: Normal behavior of the software. You will see the initial application screen where you may select what
to do.
•
Read Configuration: The application will automatically open the connection screen and then execute the reading of
the parameters configured in the equipment to which it was connected.
•
Open Last Configuration: The application will read the last used configuration file and show it in the configuration
screen, remaining disconnected from any equipment (you can connect using the appropriate button). If there is no
last file, the software will indicate the error and display the initial screen.
•
Download Logging Data: It will open the screen where you can choose what type of download will be performed.
•
Open Diagnostics Screen: It will open the connection screen, and will make the reading of the connected equipment.
On this screen you can also change the language that the software will adopt as default.
PASSWORD PROTECTION
It is possible to protect the access to the equipment by using passwords. You can register a password for configuration
and another one for data download. First one protects the equipment from undesired changes in its configuration and the
second one does not allow data to be downloaded by unauthorized people. In order to remove the need of a password to
access the equipment, simply leave the new passwords fields blank.
This property is available since firmware version 1.40. FieldLogger leaves factory with no passwords set.
