I am able to download the FM80 data on Port 2 but can find no info on how to download the data from the FM80 on Port 3.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Re: Download Data from 2 FM80
I've not downloaded data from FlexMax controllers. Is this via the Mate?
Most multi-device interactive operations access each device in turn by pressing the Mate's PORT key. Does that work to access Port 3 for downloading data?

Yes, Mate 3s.
I can use the Port key to see the 2nd FM80 but when you go to download the data it is still Port 2.
I will like to access this data as my Mate 3s has not had network/internet access for 7 weeks.

Re: Download Data from 2 FM80
It looks to be a bug in the Mate software. Ran into the same issue.
When attempting a work-around, the Mate appears to have corrupted the file system on the SD Card, as it would report no SD card inserted. I could read it in a PC, so copied the data, reformatted (FAT32), and restored the data. The Mate then read the SD card again.
In all that messing around, it occurred to me that it wasn't necessary. Without the internet, I can monitor and fully control my system with Andrew Welch's ACKcess program: https://wattplot.com/ACKcess.htm
Check it out. It's free to try.

Thanks for Wattplot info.
However, the ethernet port on my Mate 3s is inoperative and Mate 3s are not available.
