Log File Sending with FTP

Log files can be sent to an FTP server using the iConnector and a
modem. When using this feature, the log files of the previous day are
automatically sent every day after midnight.

To use this feature, proceed as follows:

1.

Configure the iConnector and modem as described in section

Report Transmission Configuration on page 144

.

2.

To send the Log files to an FTP server, create a log group in the
Logging view, and add the items to be logged.

3.

Select the FTP tab in the Configure Log Group frame, as shown
in

4.

Select Upload logs via FTP and give the following parameters:

a.

Destination: This is the FTP server name followed by an
optional path to which the files will be sent. For example,
when entering ftp.vaisala.com/data the reports are sent to
directory data under user's home directory in the
ftp.vaisala.com server.

b.

Use station name in ftp server path: When this option is
selected, the log files will be placed in subdirectories with
station names. For example, the full storage path for station
MAWS1 would be: ftp.vaisala.com/data/MAWS1.

NOTE

The iConnector firmware does not support the creation of directories;
thus the specified directory has to exist in the destination FTP server.
