Retrieve the Controller’s history log file using the FTP server
The FTP server can be used to retrieve the history log file from the controller. Retrieving the history log file
from the controller uses the same procedure described previously for copying a controller profile from the
controller. The only difference is that the log database is not stored on the public directory and is copied
there using a controller command.
There are two communication commands that control the history log file and history database. These
commands can be sent using Telnet as well as using GPIB and RS-232. The controller’s Telnet interface is
used in these examples. This interface is enabled from the COMM screen’s TCP/IP Server folder as shown
below.
History commands are available to clear the history database and to copy the history log file to the VPL
folder.
The Clear History command deletes all of the data in the history database on the controller.
The command syntax is:
= clearhist 1
The Copy History command copies the history database to the public folder as History.txt so it can be
downloaded via FTP.
The command syntax is:
= copyhisttoftp
The following examples demonstrate the use of these commands. Note that the free SimpleComm terminal
program available from www.TidalEng.com
is used in these examples to send the History commands using
Telnet.
