Defines data upload type and range:
All data as a single file
– All data is uploaded
into 1 file.
By scan number range
– Enter beginning scan
(sample) number and total number of scans. All
data within range is uploaded into 1 file.
To change upload file name selected in Step D
above, click Browse to navigate to desired upload file
path and name. Upload file has a .xml extension.
After Seaterm232 uploads data into .xml data file, it
creates .hex data file and .xmlcon configuration file
that are compatible with SBE Data Processing.
These files are placed in same directory as .xml data
file, and have same name (but different extensions).
Select number of bytes uploaded in each block.
Seaterm232 uploads data in blocks, and calculates a
checksum at end of each block. If block fails
checksum verification, Seaterm232 tries to upload
block of data again, cutting block size in half.
Select to enable ASCII text or
binary upload. Binary is
approximately twice as fast.
