Changes
Key: Additions Deletions
A long-desired feature has been the need to load a logger configuration into the Central computer without manual comparison/typing, or to update (sync) changes that have been made in the field with the Central computer. While the Model 8816 and 8832 loggers do not support 'upload' commands, there is a function in the logger where its settings can be 'dumped' to a file. AirVision now has the capability to parse that file and import the channels, calibrations, alarms, and other settings.
First, open a Link to Logger session, log in, and navigate to Status->Dump Setup(s). Move to highlight the "Dump All to Curr Port", but don't select yet.
Next, click on the "Start Recording" button on the ribbon. Then hit ENTER to start the dump process. When the dump is complete, click "Stop Recording" and save the file to a place you can remember, and give a file name specific to that site/logger.
Now, you can close Link to Logger, and open Data Source Details. Select the logger in question, or create a new logger and save it. Then select "Parse Config File" on the ribbon. Navigate to the file and select "Open". The system will then parse the file and create (or update) all records, and give you a status when it is complete.

Special Notes
- Since the correlation of GSI and Modbus drivers are not known to the logger in the same way AirVision knows them, these settings are not imported, and must be set manually after the import.
