6.7.1.1 WiFiTM Reporting_mk2

Note: When using the instrument with WiFi™ connectivity, do not start a recording manually, or via the timer. The instrument will be completely controlled by the server, including starting the recording, erasing memory if required, and resetting the time.

 

When using the WiFi™ feature, the instrument will try to connect to a known server at regular intervals, or immediately in case of alarm.

 

Whenever it connects the instrument will talk to a special Instrument_Listener application running on the server. That application will do the following:

• If the instrument was recording:

o Upload the latest recorded data from the instrument and updates a growing file with that data (create the file if it was not already created).

• If the instrument was not recording (for instance if the recording was stopped earlier because the memory was full):

o Upload the latest recorded data from the instrument (if any) and update the recording file.

o Adjust the instrument time (does not adjust the time zone of the instrument, just precisely readjust the Universal-Time-Code running in the instrument).

o Delete all data in the instrument’s memory (all that data has already been safely stored in the recording file on the server).

o Start a new recording.
