FIGURE 2-1. Datalogger Home Page
If there is a default.html file on the datalogger, this will automatically become
the user-configurable home page.
The WebPageBegin/WebPageEnd declarations and the HTTPOut instruction
can be used in a datalogger program to create HTML or XML files that can be
viewed by the browser. For more information on using these instructions, see
the datalogger manual or CRBasic Editor Help.
FileOpen and FileWrite can be used to create html pages, but
this requires first writing the file to the datalogger’s USR drive.
It is less convenient, and the page will be only as current as it is
written to the file.
NOTE
2.3 FTP
2.3.1 FTP Server
With an NL115 attached, the datalogger will automatically run an FTP server.
This allows Windows Explorer to access the datalogger’s file system via FTP.
In the FTP world, the “drives” on the datalogger are mapped into directories
(or folders). The “root directory” on the datalogger will include CPU and
possibly USR and/or CRD. The files will be contained in one of these
directories. Files can be pasted and copied to/from the datalogger “drives” as
if they were drives on the PC. Files on the datalogger drives can also be
deleted through FTP.
