Point to Point and FTP Communication
After having written the FLD file, the AMS-8061 writes a file named
HH_mm_GG_MM_YY.TXT where:
•
HH is hour of the day.
•
mm is minute of the day.
•
GG is the day.
•
MM is the month.
•
YY is the year
Which represents the events file.
This is an ASCII file which contains all the new events since last
connection.
Alternatively, soliciting a connection, by the SMS command, different event
history can be retrieved as follows:
•
SCGNA : all the stored events are written in EVENT.TXT file
•
SCGNL : The last 20 events are written in EVENT.TXT file
The content of EVENT file is the chronological history of all events up to the
time of connection (RTC setting assumed to be correct).
First configuration of each station and its functional test should be
performed before installing the station on site.
User must ensure that the GSM signal is available in the installation site.
First connection must be done via RS232 or USB or Fiber or Ethernet
connection to allow proper setting of FTP and modem parameters.
Follow the step from to n°1 to n°18:
1) Set-up the remote unit and recharge batteries (if necessary) as
explained in the chapter 1 and 2.
2) Install 8061SW-02 control software in the controller PC with
administration privileges (see paragraph 3.3).
3) When connecting an AMS-8061 to the PC USB port for the first time, a
message informing that new hardware "MSP430 Virtual COM Port
(COMn)" has been found appears (see paragraph 4.2).
4) If the USB-RS232 adapter is used, it appears among the devices as a
"Prolific USB-to-Serial Comm Port " (see paragraph 4.2).
5) Run 8061SW-02 PC with administration privileges (see paragraph 3.3)
and select the correct COMM port. (see paragraph 4.2).
6) Select the FTP section of the 8061SW-02 control software and select
one station from the stations list (the first installation will show only one
station set by the software as an example).
These are the basic operations to follow to work with the AMS-8061.
