About Transfers and Transfer Schedules
In addition to being able to view your device history in
viewLinc, you can transfer your Vaisala Veriteq device data
for viewing and analyzing in a spreadsheet or other data
analysis tool.
You can transfer Vaisala Veriteq device data according to a
set schedule. Since transfers can be scheduled in advance,
you don’t need to be there when the transfer takes place.
Regardless of how frequently you schedule data transfers,
data in the device remains intact and is recorded indefinitely
(or until the device reaches its memory capacity).
It is recommended that you transfer your Vaisala Veriteq
device data on a regular basis for backup purposes, and to
ensure no data is overwritten (refer to the vLog User guide
for more information on device data storage capacity). Each
transfer from each device creates one data file per device.
Note:
All Vaisala Veriteq devices are assigned a
default transfer schedule when the device is dis-
covered. The transfer is enabled and scheduled
for a seven-day period. If your device will reach
its storage capacity before this period is over,
you can adjust the period to ensure no data is
lost.
