•Select Next Test to return to the setup screen and run another iteration at a different location.
•Select Done to exit the test and prepare for the transfer of the results (see Close-Out Script results
management and transfer on page 8-12).
8.6.3 Close-Out Script results management and transfer
The script is designed to store results from the previous script run, ready for transfer via FTP to an
external computer after testing is complete. Normally, the FTP process is performed independently
following script testing. For more information on general testing flow, see General procedure for running
the Close-Out Script on page 8-10
Once initiated, the onscreen prompts lead you through the FTP steps, noting the following:
•An Admin Port should be configured with valid, routable IP information before attempting the
transfer. The FTP action requires the unit to be properly networked with the target server via this port.
• If a target server is unavailable, the script allows you to exit with the option whether or not to discard
saved results. If you choose to retain results, you will have the option to attempt the transfer again
when the script is launched the next time.
• Results files contain a complete set of measurement results for each channel measured during each
interval. In a results file, each set of results is preceded by a header that indicates the location and
outlet number for the respective test.
• Once a results file is successfully transferred, the unit no longer produces any prompts related to
those results, such as purge and transfer prompts. The next test begins a new set of results. Note
that all results files remain on the unit indefinitely where they can be viewed, deleted, and/or
transferred with the Record Manager. For more information on the Record Manager, see Record
Manager on page 5-1.
• During the FTP action, any file on the server with the same name as a file on the unit will be
overwritten.
• For more information on setting up an FTP server on a remote computer, see FTP server installation
and setup on page 2-58.
