Caution: Users can delete the user default file. If this is done and a new user default
configuration file is not saved, the system will use the factory defaults when rebooted, restarted,
or power cycled.
2.10.2 Diff Command
The ATS-6501 will track changes to the system settings that have been made and have not been
saved. Use the diff command to provide a complete list of settings that have been modified but
not saved. In the example below the ptdavg has been changed to 20 seconds but not saved. The
system will report the current setting and the saved (original) setting in the report.
ATS-6501>ptdavg 20
[OK] 2013-08-05T17:41:39Z
ATS-6501>diff

2.10.3 FTP and Real-Time (rt) Configuration Files
The ATS-6501 will boot up with the FACTORY ftp | rt log file settings automatically and will
continue to use these settings until any changes to the gps logging functions are made and saved
as the user default log settings (default). This will save the updated logging configuration and the
ATS-6501 will use these settings each time the system is power cycled, rebooted, or restarted. To
save the default log file settings simply type save_logs ftp or save_logs rt. To see if the user
settings have been saved use the list_logs ftp or list_logs rt command to obtain a list of the
possible configuration files. If there are no user configuration files available the system will
report no files.
ATS-6501>list_logs ftp ATS-6501>list_logs rt
default default
or if there are no log settings files,
ATS-6501>list_logs ftp
no files
Note: The ftp | rt user default files are used at start up if they are available otherwise the system
will use the factory default settings. To modify the ftp or real-time logging behavior, make the
changes needed based on your application and type save_logs ftp or save_logs rt. Users are
encouraged to set the user default ftp |rt settings based on their application so the system will
properly configure the logging after a reboot or power cycle.
Users can create other logging configuration files. Simply make the desired changes to the
logging configuration, type save_logs ftp or save_logs rt and a filename to identify the
configuration and press enter. The system will save this configuration containing the new
settings. To use this log configuration use the list_logs ftp or list_logs rt command to bring up a
list of the possible configuration files and use the load_logs ftp or load_logs rt command to have
the system load and start running with the desired configuration settings. Use the settings
