Retrieving Waveform Records by Using FTP
You can retrieve compressed waveform files by using File Transfer Protocol (FTP)
and native Ethernet communication. A number of FTP clients are available many
at no cost. This example uses Microsoft® Internet Explorer as the FTP client. To
access and download waveform files by using a web browser, follow these steps.
1. Open Internet Explorer and browse to the FTP server of the
PowerMonitor 5000. The url is ftp://<ip_address>/, where <ip_address>
is the one assigned to the native Ethernet port.
2. Browse to the Waveform directory.
3. Select a waveform file name from the list and click the Save to save the file
in the location of your choosing
Reading Waveform Records by Using the Data Table Interface
The procedure for reading waveform records is similar to the procedure used for
reading data logging records. Refer to
Reading Waveform Records by Using the
Data Table Interface on page 108.
IMPORTANT If you are using FactoryTalk EnergyMetrix software to log data from your
PowerMonitor 5000 unit, the software can automatically download and
clear waveform files shortly after they have been recorded. In this case, the
file list in the FTP client is empty. Use the software to view and manage
waveform files.
