Ftp Connection log:
This log shows a list of files transferred by FTP on the DAS.
Last Data Upload log:
This log file contains a report from the last data upload attempt to remote database/
webservers such as BMO. This log will show if any log files are being rejected by the dabase/webserver, or
if the network is not allowing a connection.
Last Modem Connection log:
This log file shows the details of the modem operation including modem
connection quality parameters. This is updated ever time the modem makes a dial in or dial out connection.
Time Change Log:
This log contains a list of time change events. When the DAS system clock is changed
either manually or by automated time sync, and the change is more than a few seconds, the event is
recorded here.
System boot log:
This log shows when the DAS was started, and lists process events such as remote
logins, or logger process restarts. This log is most useful for detecting when the DAS was restarted, and
whether there was a proper shutdown event prior to rebooting (if not, possibly a power outage).
Start/End logging:
This button allows the user to start detailed logging or disable it if it is running.
Purge Log Files
: This button will clear all the system log files listed on this page, but not the meter data log
files. (deletes kernel, boot, FTP, messages, upload log files) This does not clear the interval log data from
attached meter devices.
11.6 Firmware Update
The DAS can upgrade its own firmware using the firmware update page. The DAS must have an Internet
connection to communicate with the leviton.com website for firmware updates. If a LAN connection is
present and configured, it will be used by default. If the DAS uses a dialout connection, you must first
enable the dialout by clicking the “dialout now” button on the
Networking/Modem-ppp/Status page.
After clicking the “Check for updates” button, the DAS will contact the Leviton .com webserver and attempt
to download a list of firmware files. The list is compared to the firmware versions installed, and a listing of
the files will be displayed. If any firmware updates are available, a button to the right will be shown labeled
“Upgrade”. The firmware files are as follows: will be displayed. If any firmware updates are available, a
button to the right will be shown labled “Upgrade”. The firmware files are as follows:
When clicking on the Upgrade button, the DAS will again contact the webserver and download the
requested firmware image file. The DAS will take a few seconds to verify the file checksum and prompt you
with an “Install” button. Click the install button and the DAS will install the firmware update and reboot itself
to make the changes take effect.
Do not power down the DAS during any step of the DAS firmware update process. Doing so may corrupt
the system and render the DAS unusable.
