NL116 Ethernet and CompactFlash® Module In order to use FTP, the datalogger's FTP User Name and FTP Password must be set. This is done using DevConfig. Step 1: Configure Datalogger a. Connect serial cable from PC COM port to datalogger RS-232 port. b. Open Campbell Scientific's DevConfig. Select the Device Type of the datalogger (CR1000 or CR3000), the appropriate Communication Port and Baud Rate. Connect to the datalogger. e. Under the Network Services tab, verify that FTP Enabled is checked. Input the FTP User Name and FTP Password. f. Press the Apply button to save the changes and then close DevConfig. NOTE Using anonymous as the user name with no password allows FTP access without inputting a user name or password. Step 2: Access File System a. The datalogger must be set up for Ethernet communications as explained in Sections 4.1, Physical Setup (p. 2), and 4.2, Communicating via Ethernet (p. 3) (Step 1 only). b. Open a Windows Explorer window. Enter ftp://username:[email protected] where nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn is the IP address of the datalogger. NOTE If the user name is "anonymous" with no password, enter ftp://nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn where nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn is the IP address of the datalogger. 7.1.3.2 FTP Client The datalogger can be an FTP client for the purpose of putting, getting, and managing files on an FTP server. It can also be used to transfer table data easily. This is done using the FTPClient() instruction. The following program is an example of using FTPClient() to send a file to another datalogger and get a file from that datalogger. For more information, see the FTPClient() instruction in the CRBasic Editor help. 17
