Download tour definitions to a mobile device wirelessly

You transfer data without cradling a device by using a wireless Internet connection.

First ensure that your device has been configured to transfer data wirelessly, as described in "Configure wireless transfer in PI Manual Logger Mobile" in the PI Manual Logger Administrator Guide. If properly configured, and a wireless connection is available, the Retrieve New Tours from Host menu command is visible in the PI Manual Logger File menu.

1. Click File > Retrieve New Tours from Host.

2. In the Tour List from Host screen, choose one of the following actions to retrieve a tour list:

   • To retrieve a complete tour list from the host, leave the Filter text box empty and click .

   • To retrieve a filtered tour list, enter a simple search term in the Filter text box and click .

     This action searches tour names and descriptions. For example, enter the term pump to retrieve all tours where the term pump appears in either the Tour Name or Tour Description, without regard to case.

   Note: You can expand column headers by selecting the column header separator and dragging to increase or decrease the width of the column.

3. To download new tour definitions to the device, select the check box beside each tour name you want and click Download.

   

   • A green row without a check mark indicates a tour that resides solely on the host.

   • A blue row with a check mark indicates a tour that presently resides on the host but is selected for download to the device.

   • A black row with a check mark indicates a tour that currently resides on the device.
