DataWeb sample setup using FDCutil.com:
To setup the MCT for use with the FDCutil.com DataWeb server, go to the FTP/WAN screen on the MCT and
enter the following data into the screen fields. Make sure to replace the “custName” and “custPassword” text
below with the actual user name/password entered during the FDCutil.com signup process.
Type = DataWeb
IP Add = https://fdcutil.com/FDDataService.svc
User = custName
Password = custPassword
Server = empty (no characters)
Port = not used
ID#1 = unique identifier of your choice
ID#2 = unique identifier of your choice
Press the “Save” button to complete the setup on the MCT FTP/WAN screen. Next, navigate to the Data logging
screen. Make entries in the ID#1 and/or ID#2 fields. These entries should be unique to the MCT and not
duplicates of any other MCT you may have connected to the site. Once logging is started at the MCT, data will
begin transfer to the “Data” section of the server-side site. Data will be transferred to the server at the beginning
of logging (one record) with additional records transferred based on the rate that the MCT data log interval is
set for.
If the data log interval rate is set for 60 seconds, the MCT will populate the database with a single set of records
(PV, SP, %Out determined by data log/server setup) once every 60 seconds. If the data log interval rate is set
for 120 seconds, the MCT will populate the database with a single set of records (PV, SP, %Out determined by
data log/server setup) once every 120 seconds. Data log intervals can be set as fast a 1 second since buffering
is used at the MCT for faster data log rates, but in this case the database would receive a total of 60 records in
1 minute (one record per second). Buffering for rates faster than 1 minute is used to reduce access/overhead
at the server side while still maintaining 1 second date/time stamps for database record keeping.
8.7 Annotation
The Annotation screen allows the user to add messages to the running data file and view any messages
currently associated with a loaded historical data file.
When a historical data file is loaded, the Annotation screen will display any messages that were written to the
file. The date, time, user name and description of the data file annotation is shown. Note that the currently
running data log file can be opened as a historical data file, and the current annotations for the running file will
be shown.
