WiFi™
Connect
From any state, including
Idle
and
Recording
, the instrument can periodically
wake up its
WiFi™
interface and attempt to
connect to a server. If the connection is not
established after 1 minute it falls back to its
original state until the next connection time.
If USB-connected, power comes from
USB. If not, power comes from the
battery. The
Periodic Connect
feature
consumes battery. This is especially the
case if the connection interval is set to
be short so it occurs often.
