Data storage & Files
All data of the DAS are stored on its own SD-card and server functionality is provided to reach the data. The content of the SD-card is encrypted and files should not be removed, deleted or added in the card. In the DAS root folder, the following files and folders should be visible. Login as Administrator (Admin).
The DAS will save the test results automatically as soon as the incubation has been completed. Aborted measurements will also be saved into 'Files'.
For more information see also - 'What type of data files are stored in the DAS?'
NOTE: The SD-card contains encrypted files that are important for the operation of the device. Do not delete “InhibitoryMethods.csv” and “history.csv” files, “.txt” and software “.tar.bz2” files.
1. Get files via Files page (Recommended)
When logged in as “Administrator” the Files page appears on the top of the screen. In this page, it is possible to see the files stored on the SD-card as shown in the Figure below.
Click on 'Tests' to view previous incubation results.
It is possible to browse through the folders by clicking on a folder. The path is shown at the top of the window and this path is shortcut to “higher” directories.
When a file is selected, it can be shown in the browser (pdf file, jpg-file, txt-file) or downloaded. For details refer to: "What formats are available for data export?"
Multiple files can be selected by checking the “Select” box on the upper left side 
The files can be downloaded (as zip) or removed (need to unlock files). See Setup -unlock files. Before removing files read also "Do I need to remove files from the DAS?"
Click on 'Calibrations' to view previous Calibration results.
Calibrations files can be downloaded with the same procedure described above by navigating into the 'Calibrations' folder. For the type of files generated during calibration see question: 'What is the process for calibration?'
The files can be downloaded (as zip) or removed (need to unlock files). See Setup -unlock files. Before removing files read also "Do I need to remove files from the DAS?"
2. Get files via the Windows File Explorer (Under DSM advice)
Under the advice of DSM representative, the files can also be reached by opening the Windows File Explorer and by typing \\ and the IP-address of the DAS in the address bar, for example: \\10.141.0.82 .
The figure below shows an example screenshot.
NOTE: The SD-card contains encrypted files that are important for the operation of the device. Do not delete, rename, move or modify “InhibitoryMethods.csv”, “history.csv” files, “.txt” and software “.tar.bz2” files. Do not rename or delete the four main folders, shown below:
It is not required to login to reach the files, but the windows file explorer can request to login. Any username and password will be accepted, you can use for example username: “das” and password: “das”. The files can be viewed and copied by default. To enable the possibility to delete files, the files need to be previously unlocked by following the procedure described in section 6.2.
Note: it is possible that the Windows version installed and the local settings don’t allow the access to the DAS. In this case the Windows File Explorer cannot be used to access files on the DAS.
