Logging Chapter 6
Download Logging Results by Using FTP
You can retrieve tlogging results by using File Transfer Protocol (ftp). There are
many ftp clients available, many at no charge. This example uses the Microsoft
Windows command-line ftp client. To access log files by using this client, follow
these steps.
1. From the Windows Start menu, choose Run.
2. Type cmd and click OK.
3. At the prompt, type ftp and press Enter (this time and after each
command).
4. Type ‘open aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd’ (the IP address of the power monitor).
5. Log in with a valid user name and password.
6. To view a directory of log files, type ‘cd LoggingResults’.
7. Type ‘dir’.
8. To download a log file, type ‘get’ followed by a space and the file name.
The file is saved to the folder where the ftp client was started (typically the
Windows desktop).
There are many other commands you can use. We suggest searching the Web for
‘command-line ftp client’ for more information.
Reading Logging Records by Using the Data Table Interface
The Min/Max, Alarm, Event, Load Factor, Time-of-Use, Power Quality, and
Snapshot logs can be retrieved sequentially, one record at a time, in either forward
or reverse order. The Min/Max, Load Factor, and Time-of-Use Logs also support
the retrieval of individually specified records.
