LOGS
The BossPac NEST System has extensive logging
capabilities. The logs are stored on a microSD card
in csv format.
3.2.3.1
Connecting to the USB port
The logs can be retrieved by connecting a computer
to the USB micro-B connector on the NEST main
board. As the NEST is itself certified as a stand-
alone electrical enclosure, the connector is located
behind the back panel for Hazardous Location certification purposes.
IMPORTANT:
IT IS NOT RECOMMENDED TO POWER THE DEVICE VIA THE USB PORT, AS THE SUDDEN REMOVAL OF
POWER MAY CORRUPT THE MICRO SD CARD.
3.2.3.2
Retrieving the Logs
The microSD card will appear on the computer as a removable storage drive. Navigate to the drive using the
File Explorer. Copy the logs of interest from the microSD card to a folder on your computers hard drive.
3.2.3.3
Formatting the microSD Card
From the Main Menu select LOGS and then FORMAT SD CARD to clear all logs from the microSD card.
3.2.3.4
microSD Card Specifications
The NEST will work with microSD cards using either a FAT or FAT32 file system. The NEST ships standard with a 2
GB microSD card rated down to -40C. Larger cards can be used; however, care should be taken in selecting
the SD card for the operating environment. Consumer grade SD cards are typically only rated for tempera-
tures down to -25C.
3.2.4
Sensor Lists
When first configuring or adding WASP™ Sensors
to the WASP™ systems, it is necessary to “bind” the
sensors to the receiver. The SENSOR LISTS will show
all available sensors within range of the NEST.
To access SENSOR LIST:
> MAIN MENU > SENSOR LISTS > SELECT.
This brings up the main SENSOR LISTS screen with 3
options: FREE, BOUND, and IGNORED.
FREE:
Shows all available sensors within range.
BOUND:
Identifies all sensors currently “bound” to
the NEST Receiver.
IGNORED:
Identifies all sensors chosen to be ignored
by the NEST Receiver, (if any).
