On the left side of the page, there is panel for creating new export requests, which allows you to specify the time
range for export, export resolution in frames per seconds, and individual devices for which the measurements
should be exported.
If the export resolution is higher than the default reporting resolution for a given device, you can also specify
whether the server should request these "missing" frames from each device, or not. If your devices are configured
to report on a lower speed, and you would like to get a detailed snapshot of a certain time range, you can choose
the option to collect those frames.
Once the export request is added, it can be canceled, but not modified. If you configure the request to
collect all missing frames from the device before exporting, all devices will have to send all requested
frames before the export file is completed. Depending on your connection type and speed, this may take
significant time to complete if time range is substantial.
Since export requests tend to contain large amounts of data, server queues requests and processes them
sequentially. Since this may take some time to complete, all requests for a given user (and their current progress
statuses) are shown in the right panel on this page. Previously finished requests are also available for download.
This means that you can queue a new export request, log out of the system, and then return later to download
the file to your computer. You can also sign in from a different place to download your finished exported data.
Data is currently exported in a CSV (comma-separated values) textual format. For information on
customization of the format or implementation of other formats, contact support@wamster.net.
6.6 REMOTE ACCESS
For additional configuration options, as well as diagnostics and troubleshooting, Wamster allows each device to be
accessed remotely through the Remote Access page:

Clicking on individual keys on the instrument mask sends these commands to the instrument, while the instrument
sends its current screen back to your browser. To prevent a large number of missing frames whenever the screen
is changed on slower (GPRS) networks, screen refresh can be only initiated manually, by clicking the Refresh
screen button.
For this reason, when a different screen is selected on the instrument and it differs from the currently displayed
image in the browser, status indicator above the Refresh screen button changes from Synchronized to Not
synchronized:
