Log file(s)
Using AT commands, you can command the EXPLORER 540 to send the following log files to
an FTP server:
•Diagnostics report: diagreport.tar.gz. A report containing useful information for
troubleshooting (includes the logs below as well as other information).
•Event log: event.csv. A log of events that are signalled to the user.
•System log: syslog.log. A log of internal events in the EXPLORER 540.
• AT command log: at_log.txt. A log of all AT commands sent and received by the
EXPLORER 540.
To command the EXPLORER 540 to send a log file to an FTP server, do as follows:
1. To access the EXPLORER 540, use one of the following:
• a computer connected to the Internet, see Remote access with AT commands on
page 31, or
• equipment connected to a cellular network, see Remote access with SMS on page 25.
Note that you need a password for both access methods. For AT commands, use the
AT_ICLCK command with the admin password, for SMS, use the remote SMS password.
2. Send the command _ISENDFILE to the EXPLORER 540 to make it send a log file to the
specified destination on your FTP server.
Example: _ISENDFILE="/","syslog.log","ftpdirectory","ftp.myftpserver.com","ftp-
username","ftp-password"
In this example. the terminal will look for a file named syslog.log in the local directory / in
the terminal, and send the file to the directory ftpdirectory on the FTP server named
ftp.myftpserver.com. The user name ftp-username and password ftp-password give
access to the FTP server. The APN is left out to indicate that the default APN is used.
3. You get a response command that the file was transferred successfully.
Example:_ISENDFILE: 0, Complete
