Storing unsent messages
If a message must be discarded because there's no more room in the sending queue or because it can't be delivered,
it is stored on a data carrier in the device, if possible. Even if the device is deactivated or if messages must be
discarded due to preparation of a new measurement, storage in the device should still take place if at all feasible.
Towards that end, the messages are saved even upon generating the message text and only deleted from the backup
folder after being successfully sent.
If the device has an internal hard drive, it will be used for storage. Otherwise the system will check the device for the
presence of a removable storage drive to which to save the messages.
For storage of the messages, a folder with the name "
UnsentMessages
" is created in the data carrier's main
directory. All unsent messages are saved in this folder under filenames which provide indication of when and how the
message was generated.
The filenames take the following form:
Date
Time
Number
Event
Event count
Type
2004-07-05
09-31-46
#4
Virt_Bit03=1
#2
Examples
2004-07-05 09-31-46 #4 Virt_Bit03=1 #2.EMAIL
The first number corresponds to "
AllMessageCounter
". It represents the incremental counter of messages since a
measurement was last prepared. The second number is the message's "
ThisMessageCounter
". It states how often
the event occurred.
The filename extension indicates whether the message is an email, an SMS or a FAX.
