HTTP Datalogger Source Properties

The HTTP Datalogger Source Properties dialog box comes up when adding an HTTP datalogger source from the Project | Manage Data Sources dialog box. This dialog box is used to set up the HTTP datalogger source for your project.

Source Name

Designates the name that will be used for the HTTP datalogger in the Data Source Browser.

Datalogger Web Address

Specifies the IP address of the HTTP datalogger. The address can be a domain name or IP address in the form XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX for an IPv4 address or [XXXX:XXXX:XXXX:XXXX:XXXX:XXXX:XXXX:XXXX] for an IPv6 address. If you are using a port other than the default port (80 for http, 443 for https), you need to specify it using a colon followed by the port.  For example, campbellsci.com:8080, 192.168.1.1:1234, or [2620:24:8080:8600:85a1:fcf2:2172:11bf]:8080.

NOTE: If the datalogger has only HTTPS enabled with HTTP disabled, it must be specified by adding https:// in front of the IP address.

NOTE: CR1000/CR3000/CR800 series dataloggers require OS 28 or later to support IPv6 addresses.

Datalogger Web Username

This is the username that should be used when accessing the HTTP datalogger. 

NOTE: Usernames and passwords are controlled by the datalogger Account Manager. Device Configuration Utility (DevConfig) must be used to define user accounts within this Account Manager. The Account Manager is accessed by connecting to the datalogger in DevConfig and then pressing the Edit Accunts button on the Network Services tab.

Datalogger Web Password

This is the password for the specified username. 

Query Interval

Specifies how often RTMC will query the HTTP datalogger for new data. Use the arrows or type in a number directly and then choose Milliseconds, Seconds, Minutes, Hours, or Days from the drop-down list.
