4. Use the pull-down menu for Retrieval Mode to select one of two options:
• Partial Retrieval (this is the default Retrieval mode)
• Time Range Retrieval
NOTES:
• In Partial Retrieval mode, only the newest records are retrieved. This increases
retrieval speed, since records that have previously been retrieved are ignored. When
the log is full, it will roll over. Partial Retrieval mode should be used for Billing and
continuous logging.
• The Time Range Retrieval mode is useful if you want to retrieve specific events. If
you select Use Time Range from the pull-down menu, date range fields will display,
allowing you to select the time range for data retrieval. Only records (within the spec-
ified time range) that are newer than the latest records in the log database can be
retrieved for any selected logs. For this reason, Time Range Retrieval should not be
used for Billing or continuous logging purposes. The only way to retrieve earlier
records using Time Range Retrieval is to delete the existing log database(s) before
retrieving the log(s).
5. Click Retrieve.
a. You will see a screen that shows the percent retrieved for each log, the time elapsed since
retrieval began, and any messages.
b. After the logs have been retrieved, you will see a screen which shows you the Mode, Start
time, and Status of Log Conversion.
c. The Log Viewer opens.
NOTES:
• Only one person at a time can download a log. If someone else is downloading a log, it will be
unavailable until the download is complete.
• Retrieve logs as often as you want. Each time you retrieve a log file, Eaton Meter
Configuration Software appends only the newest records and captures to the existing database.
