How to get data from senspod

  1. Connect your device through rfcomm to serial terminal.
  2. Open cutecom and send suspend command.
  3. Type LIST to see what files do you have on your senspod's SD card.
  4. To get the data you will need to look at log files (that have LOG extension). Type GET filename.LOG and ENTER. The content will appear in the window of cutecom.
  5. There are at least two options to download the content:
  • copy and paste into a new text file, or
  • check the box called "Log to". Choose/type the name and choose the location where to safe the log file. The new data will be temporary saved in this file every time you open the device and check the box "Log to".
***It's advisable to safe the file as... something else every time after you done downloading the content (you can create a script that will do it for you), because next time you open your device and try to get other files it will overwrite the content, which was created previously.

If there are no log files on your device, you might want to check if your device is configured correcly.:
  1. type GET sens.cfg
  2. check if the senspod in MEASURE and RECORD mode (mode 3).
If not you will have to download the sens.cfg, set the right mode and upload the changed file to the device. Be coutios about the danger of manipulating the file. You can break your senspod. For more information check the original manuals from Sensaris or earlier posts in this blog.
