In normal operation measurement data is automatically transferred to the viewLinc server. If there is a break in communication with the viewLinc server, the RFL100 will record data locally, and the data will be automatically backfilled when communication is restored. This means that local data download is mostly an optional convenience, and only really necessary in exceptional cases. For example, a communication break longer than 30 days would fill the local memory of the RFL100, and cause data to be lost unless it was locally downloaded.
The local data files are text files that can be viewed with any text editor. The data can also be imported to a spreadsheet program such as Microsoft Excel using the tab-separated values (TSV) import option. The data cannot be manually loaded to viewLinc, it must be stored as a separate file.
