Your Outpost loggers needs to connect to Outpost Central network to perform it's function. The loggers do so by dialing at a prescribed interval, according to the set connection schedule. During a connection, the logger will upload its data payload. It also receives further configuration from the server, depending on whether there has been changes to its configuration.
If your subscription plan allows for you to do so, you may be able change the upload frequency or roster specific connection times for your loggers.
Higher than usual daily connection frequency may incur extra charges.
Changing Upload Frequency:
- Click on the site name you wish to roster the connections.
- The Outpost Configuration window opens.
- In the Configuration tab, click Upload Frequency and select the frequency from the drop-down list.
- Click Update.
Rostering Uploads:
- Click on the site name you wish to roster the connections.
- The Outpost Configuration window opens.
- In the Configuration tab, click Upload Frequency and select Roster from the drop-down list.
- The Roster window opens.
- Select the times you wish to roster the connection from the drop-down list, and click Add. Add as many as you wish.
Most subscription plans will allow for a certain maximum number of daily connections or uploads. This is because increased connections per day, or scheduled connections during certain times in a day, may severely shorten battery life.
The new upload frequency will only take effect after the logger connects to the server, which will be per the previous scheduled connection time.
