Step 1
Install your BeanDevice on your equipment Configure fully your Beandevice before starting Data Logging
Step 2
Configure your Data Acquisition mode of your BeanDevice, choose properly your Datalogger option: Datalogging only or Datalogging + Data transmission The BeanGateway sends an OTAC for starting the new data acquisition mode on the BeanDevice All the logs are recorded on an embedded memory flash of the Beandevice

Datalogging
Every N Cycle the BeanDevice listens for a Download request coming from the BeanGateway
A standalone installation of the BeanDevice can be done without the necessity to be connected to the BeanGateway. If the Power management mode of your BeanDevice is configured in sleeping with Network listening mode, every N cycle (defined by the user) the Beandevice listens for a download request coming from the Beangateway.
If your Beangateway was used to configure the DataLogger feature of your Beandevice: Dont try to change the PAN ID or the RF channel. Your BeanDevice will not be able to reach the BeanGateway during the Network Listening process. If this is the case, you must power off then power on your Beandevice, a new WSN association will be done.

Step 4
At everytime, you can send a request (through the BeanScape) for downloading al the Data acquisition logged on the BeanDevice This request is bakcuped on the BeanGateway and will be transmitted to the BeanDevice when it starts to listen to the BeanGateway
The BeanScape sends a request for downloading all the Data acquisition logged on the BeanDevice
Request pending
The BeanGateway must be placed near the BeanDevice; If the Power management mode of your BeanDevice is configured in sleeping mode with Network listening, the request will be received by the BeanDevice when it started listening to the BeanGateway; If the Power management mode of your BeanDevice is configured in sleeping mode, the request will be received when you power off and then power up your BeanDevice
