StreamLog: retired

STREAMLOG, the fleet management service for REBEL data loggers, has been retired. Recording to the SD card and working with your loggers in DIALOG are not affected.

What STREAMLOG was

STREAMLOG was a central server that REBEL loggers reached over cellular (GPRS) or Wi-Fi connections. Through it, fleet engineers could:

• Organise projects, engineers, vehicles and loggers in one place
• Stream a few key parameters from each REBEL and watch them live
• Upload and download IVD log files
• Reconfigure loggers remotely
• Build fleet reports from the collected data

Mobile bandwidth was limited, so engineers streamed only a few key parameters per logger, typically 10 to 15. The logger kept the full log on its SD card. Engineers set up STREAMLOG in DIALOG with a security file and the StreamLog Connection Assistant.

What still works

Everything a REBEL does locally carries on as before:

• The logger records to its SD card exactly as configured.
• You copy logs over USB with REBEL Explorer, or read the SD card in a PC. See DIALOG: view live data, copy recordings and export them.
• You send configurations over USB from DIALOG, or on the SD card with DIALOG or DIALOG Remote. See DIALOG Remote: install it, prepare the SD card and maintain a REBEL.
• To process a whole fleet's logs, use DIALOG Plus batch processing and file merging. See DIALOG Plus: batch processing, merging and conversion scripts.

Some DIALOG and DIALOG Remote windows still show STREAMLOG items. These are the StreamLog tab and menu, the stream rate fields and the STREAMLOG server address on the cellular and Wi-Fi settings tabs. Leave them unused.

If your REBEL has the Wi-Fi or cellular upgrade and you used it with STREAMLOG, contact technical support. Do the same if you need data that was held on a STREAMLOG server. For anything else about your loggers, get in touch with Influx Technology.
