
TheWM18xmodulehastheabilitytoreceivefilesfromCustomerConnect.Thesefilescanbemenu
updates,images,firmwareupdatesorjustaboutanything.ThesefilescanberetrievedfromCustomer
Connectwhentheyareavailableorjustwhenneeded.
Theprocessofmovingafileacrossaserialconnection
isslowsotheDeviceandtheModulewillnotbe
sendingandreceivingregulardatainformationwhilethisishappening.Inotherwords,ifyouneedto
constantlysendtemperatureuptothecloud,itwillhavetostopwhilethefileisbeingsentfromthe
moduleto
thedevice.Often,filetransfersonlyhappenwhenthedeviceisinanidleoroffstate.
Whenafileisavailable,themodulewillsendamessagetothedeviceevery20secondsorso:NTX_FILE
Whenthedeviceisreadytoreceivethefile,itshouldsendNTX_FILE,1.

ThemodulewillrespondwithNTX_FILE,{file_type},{file_size},{Name}
{file_type}isdefinedintheMatrixFile.Thiscanbeusedtodecidethefilenameand/orhowtousethe
data.
{file_size}isinbits.Filesmustbesmallerthan1GBatthistime.

{Name}isthenameassignedtothisfile.Itdoesnotnecessarilyrepresentthefilename.Itisjustaname
thatgoeswiththedata.Itcanbeusedanywayneeded.
Thedeviceshouldthenpreparetoreceivethefileinchunksof32767bitsatatimethroughthe
serial
port.
Thedevicethensends:NTX_FILE,2andthemodulerespondswiththefiledatainchunksof32767.The
lastchunkwillbesmallerthan34767bits.
Oncethelastchunkissent,themoduleandthedeviceshouldreturntonormaloperations.

NTX_LC_FSTAT

Example:NTX_LC_FSTAT,{fault1id},{fault1count},…,{faultnid},{faultncount}

{fault1id}–inintegerdefinedintheMatrixfilethattellsNetworkwhichfaultisbeingcounted.

{fault1count}–aninteger
Response:None
TheNTX_LC_FSTATcallsendsfaultcountdatatotheCustomerConnectcloud.
Notes:
1. ThefaultsforadevicearedefinedintheMatrixFile
2. ThefaultIDcanbeanumericoralphanumericIDbutshouldneverbemorethan 5characters
