About This Manual
This manual introduces you to the SKF @ptitude Analyst Thin Client Transfer application. This manual pertains to both Thin Client Transfer File (CMSW 7320) and Thin Client Transfer Direct (CMSW 7321) products.
Thin Client Transfer installation is detailed in the @ptitude Analyst
Installation Manual. This manual assumes that the Thin Client
Transfer is already installed.

Product Overview
SKF @ptitude Analyst Thin Client Transfer (TCT) provides Data Acquisition services for remote workstations that do not require an @ptitude Analyst installation. Thin
Client Transfer is a small application that deploys very easily and facilitates data transfer to and from Microlog Analyzer and MARLIN Data Acquisition Devices (DADs), without using the @ptitude Analyst interface.
The Thin Client Transfer has two modes of communication:
Direct communication with an @ptitude Analyst database
– This method uses the
SKF @ptitude Analyst Transaction Server to transfer data directly to / from the
@ptitude Analyst database, bypassing the @ptitude Analyst application interface.
This is primarily used for thin client network environments (e.g., a Citrix environment) or for clients on a network with low bandwidth (including satellite connections).
File Transfer
– This method allows users to transfer data via a file, without requiring a direct connection between the Microlog Analyzer or MARLIN DAD and the computer hosting @ptitude Analyst. This is primarily used when data collection occurs at a remote location without an @ptitude Analyst installation.

Thin Client Transfer Licenses
Thin Client Transfer File CMSW 7320 (file transfer mode) and Thin Client Transfer
Direct CMSW 7321 (direct database communication mode) products are licensed separately. Each license specifies the number of remote computers that may upload data to @ptitude Analyst. Once you upload data from your DAD, one of the licenses for that upload method is permanently tied to the computer that was used to either perform the upload or generate the upload file.
Licenses are validated during upload using the Transaction Server to which the Thin
Client Transfer installation connects. You do not need to enter license keys at each location where Thin Client Transfer is installed; rather, licenses are entered using the
License Key Manager on the computer hosting the Transaction Server.
If you have one license key file on your network that is shared by multiple installations of @ptitude Analyst, you may enter the Thin Client Transfer licenses in the License Key Manager at any @ptitude Analyst installation. If each installation uses its own license file, you must enter the keys on the computer hosting the

Direct Database Communication
Overview
SKF @ptitude Analyst Thin Client Transfer Direct (CMSW 7321) provides database communication that allows data to be uploaded to and downloaded from a Microlog
Analyzer or MARLIN DAD from a remote client computer by directly connecting with the @ptitude Analyst database via an optimized connection using the SKF
Transaction Server. This is primarily used for thin client network environments (e.g., a Citrix environment) or for clients on a network with low bandwidth (including satellite connections).
You must log into Thin Client Transfer from a computer with access to the Transaction Server to use this option.
Upload and download functionality using Thin Client Transfer is almost identical to upload and download functionality using the
@ptitude Analyst interface.

Establishing Communication with the Data Acquisition Device (DAD)
Before transferring data to or from the Microlog Analyzer or MARLIN, you must connect the Data Acquisition Device and ensure the communication settings are identical between the Thin Client Transfer application and the connected DAD.
Thin Client Transfer Database Communication on a Microlog
Analyzer
The Microlog Analyzer transfer function allows you to download measurement
POINT setups to the Microlog Analyzer, upload collected data from the Microlog
Analyzer, check the Microlog Analyzer status, and configure, clear, or reset the
Microlog Analyzer.
The Microlog Analyzer features three ways to communicate with Thin Client
Transfer:
Serial
Modem
USB
It is important to note that some options only transfer when communicating via USB.
If you use a serial or modem connection, the following information is not transferred:
Orbit SCL, Triax (3-channel), and 2-channel type POINTs are only transferred to or from the DAD when using the USB connection.
Multiple-measurement data (i.e., data from a single POINT that produces multiple measurements) is only uploaded to @ptitude Analyst from the DAD using the USB connection.
You may only transfer data to or from an AX Series Microlog Analyzer using the USB connection.
POINTs with greater than 6400 lines of resolution or an end frequency greater than 2400 kCPM are only supported on the AX
Series Microlog Analyzer using the USB connection. If these
POINTs are transferred to a non- AX Series Microlog Analyzer, the lines and end frequency will be set back to the maximum supported by the unit.
If you have configured any of these POINT types or settings, you must use a USB connection when transferring data to or from the Microlog Analyzer to include these options.
To set up the Microlog Analyzer for data transfer:
Connect the Microlog Analyzer to the client computer with access to Thin Client
Transfer. Reference your Microlog Analyzer User Manual for specifics.
From within Thin Client Transfer, select Transfer / Microlog Analyzer.
Select DAD <--> DB. The Microlog Analyzer transfer dialog displays.
The software automatically checks for a connection between the client computer and the Microlog Analyzer. An alert dialog displays if there is a

You need only to install the modem once. The dialog opens after initial modem installation and will either automatically dial out (in
Originate mode), or will wait for the Microlog Analyzer to dial in (in
Auto Answer Mode).
Appropriate error messages display if the modem connection is not successful.
If you are using a USB connection, an error message displays if the required Microsoft ActiveSync or Windows Mobile Device Center application is not detected. Check your ActiveSync or Mobile Device
Center connection and try again.
Thin Client Transfer’s Database Communication on a MARLIN
The MARLIN transfer function allows you to download measurement POINT setups to the MARLIN, upload collected data from the MARLIN, check the MARLIN status, and configure, clear, or reset the MARLIN.
To set up the MARLIN for data transfer:
Connect the MARLIN to the client computer with access to Thin Client Transfer.
Reference your MARLIN User Manual for specifics.
Turn on the MARLIN.
On the MARLIN, access the Transfer screen. The MARLIN is ready to communicate with Thin Client Transfer.
From within Thin Client Transfer, select Transfer / MARLIN.

File Transfer
Process Overview
SKF @ptitude Analyst Thin Client Transfer File (CMSW 7320) provides a file communication feature that allows you to upload and download data using files created on remote systems, without requiring a direct connection of the Microlog
Analyzer or MARLIN DAD to the computer hosting @ptitude Analyst. This is generally used in situations where data collection occurs at a different location than data analysis using @ptitude Analyst.
Use the following sequence of steps when performing file transfer:
1) On a computer with access to your @ptitude Analyst database, use Thin
Client Transfer’s File <-->DB option to create a file (*.dskf) containing your data collection POINTs.
2) Send that file (e.g., via e-mail) to a computer with access to the Data
Acquisition Device (DAD) at the remote site.
3) Connect the DAD to that computer and use Thin Client Transfer
’s DAD <-->
File option to download the ROUTE to the DAD.
4) Collect the measurements on the DAD.
5) Connect the DAD to the computer with Thin Client Transfer and use the
DAD <--> File option to upload the resulting measurements to a file
(*.uskf).
6) Send that file (e.g., via e-mail) to the computer with access to the @ptitude
Analyst database.
7) On the computer with access to the @ptitude Analyst database, use Thin
Client Transfer’s File <-->DB option to upload the collected measurements to the database.
File Transfer to / from an @ptitude Analyst Database
File transfer to and from an @ptitude Analyst database allows you to create a file with data collection POINTs that may be transferred to your remote site. Once data has been collected, it also allows you to upload resulting measurements back into
@ptitude Analyst.
In order to use this feature, you must have a connection with an
SKF @ptitude Transaction Server. Refer to Launching @ptitude
Analyst Thin Client Transfer, earlier in this manual, for details.

Serial
Modem
USB
It is important to note that some options only transfer when communicating via USB.
If you use a serial or modem connection, the following information is not transferred:
Orbit SCL, Triax (3-channel), and 2-channel type POINTs are only transferred to or from the DAD when using the USB connection.
Multiple-measurement data (i.e., data from a single POINT that produces multiple measurements) is only uploaded to @ptitude Analyst from the DAD using the USB connection.
You may only transfer data to or from a Microlog Analyzer AX using the USB connection.
POINTs with greater than 6400 lines of resolution or an end frequency greater than 2400 kCPM are only supported on the
Microlog Analyzer AX using the USB connection. If these POINTs are transferred to a non-AX Microlog Analyzer, the lines and end frequency will be set back to the maximum supported by the unit.
If you have configured any of these POINT types or settings, you must use a USB connection when transferring data to or from the Microlog Analyzer to include these options.
To Set Up the Microlog Analyzer for Data Transfer:
Connect the Microlog Analyzer to the client computer with access to Thin Client
Transfer. Reference your Microlog Analyzer User Manual for specifics.
From within Thin Client Transfer, select Transfer / Microlog Analyzer.
Select DAD <--> File. The Microlog Analyzer DAD <--> File dialog displays.
The software automatically checks for a connection between the client computer and the Microlog Analyzer. An alert dialog displays if there is a connection error. This dialog appears if the cable connection is not correct, the communication settings have not yet been configured, or if prior settings are not currently working. Click OK at the message to continue. Refer to the
Configuring Communication Settings heading, later in this section, for instructions on setting up the connection.
If a connection error occurs, the Transfer dialog title bar displays
DAD not responding. Once a connection is established, the
Transfer dialog displays Microlog Analyzer ready.

If you are using a modem connection, you must select the proper modem type.
For first time use, you must install the modem in the
Communications tab of the Microlog Analyzer dialog. You need only to install the modem once. The dialog opens after initial modem installation and will either automatically dial out (in
Originate mode), or will wait for the Microlog Analyzer to dial in (in
Auto Answer Mode).
Appropriate error messages display if the modem connection is not successful.
Accessing Thin Client Transfer’s File Transfer on a MARLIN
The MARLIN features two ways to communicate with Thin Client Transfer:
Serial
USB
To Set Up the MARLIN for Data Transfer:
Connect the MARLIN to the client computer with access to Thin Client Transfer.
Reference your MARLIN User Manual for specifics.
Turn on the MARLIN.
On the MARLIN, access the Transfer screen. The MARLIN is ready to communicate with Thin Client Transfer.
From within Thin Client Transfer, select Transfer / MARLIN.
Select DAD <--> File. The MARLIN DAD <--> File dialog displays.
The software automatically checks for a connection between the client computer and the MARLIN. An alert dialog displays if there is a connection error. This dialog appears if the cable connection is not correct, the communication settings have not yet been configured, or if prior settings are not currently working. Refer to the Configuring Communication Settings heading, below, for instructions on setting up the connection.
If a connection error occurs, the Transfer dialog title bar displays
DAD not responding. Once a connection is established, the
Transfer dialog displays MARLIN ready.
