How to define a station
In order to manage several data loggers, to connect to a data logger via IP-call and to download data,
stations can be created in the Commander software. To view a list of all stations select the tab
Sta-
tions (F7)
.
Perform the following steps to create a new station:
1.
In the tab-menu
Stations (F7)
click
New station
.
2.
Under
Station settings
enter the
Station number
and
Sommer ID
. By default both settings are set
to the device’s serial number (visible on the MRL-7 housing).
3.
Select the
Connections
used for the station. Multiple selections are possible; the default connec-
tion can be selected by ticking the circular field.
4.
Depending on the connection type, enter the additional information, e.g.
Address
for a Bluetooth
connection or
IMSI number
for an IP call.
5.
Enter the settings for
Data
management.
When data are downloaded from a connected MRL-7 they are stored in an archive-file by default.
Each archive-file contains the data of a year or month, as selected in
Archive type
. Selection
None
will save all data in one file.
The default location for data files is C:\Users\Public\Documents\Sommer\Data\.
6.
Save the newly created station with the button
Save station
.
Please consult the Commander manual for additional information on station management.
