Appendix B.19. Delete a File -z

Delete a file on the FieldServer. Use this switch with extreme caution as no opportunity for confirmation to delete is provided. If RuiNet connects, the file will be deleted.

RuiNet –zdefault.htm

Deletes the file default.htm on the FieldServer that RuiNet connects to.

RuiNet –i192.168.1.81 –zdefault.htm

Deletes the file default.htm on a specifically targeted FieldServer.

Appendix B.20. Synch FieldServer Time with the Computer’s Time -g

The FieldServer’s real time clock is maintained with a super-capacitor. The longest that the time can be maintained for is about 30 days before the capacitor completely discharges. A consequence of this is that often when a user first receives their FieldServer the time is not correctly set.

The FieldServer date and time can be synchronized with host computer’s date and time by using the –gswitch.

RuiNet –g

Sets a FieldServer’s date and time to that of the host computer.

Appendix B.21. Set Timeout -k

Sets the timeout in milliseconds. This is the time RuiNet waits for a response before deciding that 1) a FieldServer connection has been lost or 2) A FieldServer cannot be connected to.

Normally the default timeout never needs to be changed but when connecting to FieldServers on remote networks or over the internet it might be necessary to make the timeout longer. The default timeout value is currently 2 seconds.

RuiNet –k10000 –i66.24.1.192

Tells RuiNet to try and connect to a specific FieldServer and sets the timeout to 10 seconds.

Appendix B.22. Run in Test Mode

This option is for FieldServer testing purposes only. It activates various test actions when RuiNet is used. It currently causes checksum errors during a file download to test if retries are working.
