Afternoon

the Component in V7, is this just a web page or can you make a folder then a .csv file and write to this on say a network drive i.e. nas drive ?

just thinking of a data logging project

Hi Steve,

The ENC is fairly low level so I think this should be possible. However it might get fairly technical in terms of permissions etc. Definatley worth a go.

I've also found there is a limit to how much data you can send in one chunk with this, seems limited to 256 bytes though this doesn't seem to be a limitation in the component.

Let us know how you get on.

I might be tempted to leave this for now as not got a lot of time for this one, and its only a temporary logger that i am making.
And had a look at writing to my NAS Drive as you say "Permissions"

I am interested though so will be having a look later definitely

Hi Steve, Hi Ben

How would it be if this ran over SCADA?
Map a network drive on the computer where SCADA is running. Or the computer with SCADA could also save without NAS. I have a PIC32 with an ENC28J60 that works relatively well.....

Hi Stefan

The Nasbox i use you have to create user accounts and login details and permissions to what that account can use (this is easy to do)
But you then have to log in using these credentials before you can read / write - this is why i has second thoughts for now.

I do have Naslite2 - this is pretty much Open, this maybe worth looking at later but will require me to make up a unit first
