Intervals
C.6.1
Upload Frequency
The AQSync comes from the factory with default settings for the upload frequency (5
minutes).
For each sensor or instrument, the AQSync computes averages of all
data acquired since the last upload, and then transmits those averages.
Unless you have chosen “WiFi only” as the upload method (Step C.6.2 above) we
recommend that the upload frequency should be set at 5 minutes or longer. Settings
shorter than 5 minutes would have prohibitive cellular costs.
The upload frequency can be changed by the user by accessing Settings/System
Settings/Upload Settings on the touchscreen:
NOTE: The password for accessing the System Settings menu is “password”. See
Section E.7.10 of this manual if you wish to change the password.
The frequency of the uploads can be specified by tapping on the Upload Interval in the
above right-hand screen. This brings up a keyboard for entering the desired frequency
(in minutes). Enter the desired frequency using the popup keyboard
and select “Apply”.
Then select “Save” from the Upload Settings screen.

Instrument and Sensor Outputs
Some
of the AQSync’s instruments and sensors have options for choosing their data
output intervals.
