12.2 Save Snapshot
Save Snapshot is a one step download of a pre-determined data set
from the transmitter. The data set is comprised of the following.
(Download of Snapshot takes about 6 – 7 minutes.)
•
Raw Data
Raw Data is as the name implies, a set of unprocessed data from the
sensor head.
A raw data file (5 minutes duration) is downloaded during Snapshot.
•
Data History
Data History is a compilation of flow system information that is saved
within the transmitter. The data history file is a text file that contains
the data output from the transmitter as well as some system
information that can be used for diagnostic purposes. The duration
(number of days) of data stored in data history is primarily determined
by the system data update rate. Under default setup (2 second
update rate) approximately 24 days of data will be stored.
A data history file of the last 24 hours is downloaded during Snapshot.
•
System Info
System Info (information) is a list of system hardware and software
revisions and versions, system diagnostic information, and system
setup information.
•
Configuration
Configuration is a full list of the transmitter setup parameters. The
file is encrypted for security purposes.
•
Event Log
Event Log lists a history of the abnormal operations within the system
that may affect its performance. Up to 23 events are stored in this file;
after that the oldest event will be overwritten with a new event.
12.3 Load Configuration
Load Configuration is one-step command used to upload a
configuration file to the transmitter from the SONARstick
TM
.
In the Load Configuration mode the transmitter will only load files with
the serial number of the transmitter followed by ’_LoadConfig.ini’ in the
file name. For example, a configuration file for transmitter serial
number 234 must be named ‘234_LoadConfig.ini’ for it to be uploaded
by this utility.
