CR1000 Manual - Campbell Scientific

Section 8. Operation
8.6.3.7 Files Management
8.6.3.7.1 Sending a File to a Datalogger
Web API commands allow a web client to manage files on host CR1000 memory
drives. Camera image files are examples of collections often needing frequent
management.
A file can be sent to the CR1000 using an HTTPPut request. Sending a file
requires a minimum .csipasswd access level of 1 (all access allowed). Unlike
other web API commands, originating a PUT request from a browser address bar
is not possible. Instead, use JavaScript within a web page or use the program
Curl.exe. Curl.exe is available in the LoggerNet RTMC program files folder or at
http://curl.haxx.se. The Curl.exe command line takes the following form
(command line parameters are described in the accompanying table):
curl -XPUT -v -S -T "filename.ext" --user username:password
http://IPAdr/drive/
