
“Enable FTP Service”: to be checked to enable data communication (both by FTP-push
and HTTP-pull); both HTTP-pull and FTP-push are available at the same time.
In the case FTP communication is needed, the following fields must be completed:

“Server Address”: it is the Internet address of the FTP server to which VMU-C will upload
data

“Remote directory”: the remote FTP server’s directory to which data will be uploaded

“Server user”: the user name authorized to access the remote FTP server’s directory

“Server password”: the password to be used together with the “Server user” to access the
remote directory

“Upload time interval” (hh:mm) : the interval time between two successive FTP upload
actions (in the range 10 minutes
– 24 hours)

“Alarms Flag”: to be checked to enable the VMU-C’s alarms upload to the FTP server

“Measurements Flag”: to be checked to enable the VMU-C’s measurement upload to the
FTP server

“First Delivery” (date/time): date and time of the first upload action to the FTP server
In the case it is needed to exchange data using HTTP-pull, the VMU-C will send its response to
an HTTP query sent by the remote system (automated HTTP client); for security reasons an
authentication is needed to poll data, and the following fields must be completed prior to be able
to perform HTTP requests:

“Client User”: user name to authenticate on VMU-C while executing a query

“Client Password”: password to authenticate on VMU-C while executing a query
Press “Save Configuration” to confirm configuration changes.
After
having completed the relevant fields for FTP communication it is suggested to push “Test
connection” so as to check that everything is working correctly
