Advanced Operation
Automatic Reports (if installed)
The Spider can be set up to automatically send reports. A report can
be sent by e-mail and/or by File Transfer Protocol (FTP).
There are 3 types of automatic reports, all operating independently of
each other:

Daily reports

Periodic reports

Ad-hoc reports
Daily reports are sent once per day, at a user selectable start time.
They contain all the data collected in the previous 24-hour period. For
example, if the user sets the Daily report start time to 4:00, the report
will contain the data between 4:00 AM the previous day to 03:59 AM
on the current day.
Periodic reports can be sent every hour, every 3 hours, every 6
hours, or every 12 hours, as selected by the user. They are always
“
lined-up
”
with real time. Therefore, 6-hourly periodic reports will be
sent at 06:00, 12:00, 18:00, and midnight. Each report contains the
data collected in the previous reporting period.
Ad-hoc reports are initiated by a user text message command or by
an active alarm with the
“
send Report
”
setting set to
“
YES
”
. Ad-hoc
reports initiated by alarms contain data collected in the current day. A
user can request an ad-hoc report containing data for a single day up
to 7 days in the past.
For example, sending the command
“
GET REP
”
will request a report
with the current day
’
s data. A command
“
GET REP3
”
will request all
data collected in the single day, 3 days ago. (Notice that no space
exists before the digit
‘
3
’
.)
