The XML tags used in the configuration file are explained below:

CheckRate

Update check period in minutes. Sets the interval in minutes between periodic update checks. The first check occurs in 5 minutes after the service has been started. All further checks occur periodically with the specified interval. To immediately check for updates, use the Check for updates action in the Microolap EtherSensor configurator.

InstallationTime

Time of the day when downloaded updates will be installed. Default value is 3:00 (3:00AM). To immediately install updates, use Install available updates action in the Microolap EtherSensor configurator.

AutoReboot

Reboot the OS after the installation, if necessary. If an installed update requires a reboot, Microolap EtherSensor configurator will display the respective message. If this option is enabled, the operating system will reboot automatically if at least one update requires this.

mode

The operating mode. Only one operating mode is supported at the moment: wm_standard.

UseHTTPS

Use HTTPS to connect to the update server. true allows to use HTTPS to connect to the update server. false means HTTP will be used for all connections.

UseWebProxy

WP_Address

The address of the proxy server.

WP_Port

The port number of the proxy server.

WP_Username

The user name to access the proxy server. Parameters to connect via a proxy server. If the proxy server doesn't require authorization, leave Login and Password blank.

WP_Password

The storage root directory. The path to the directory, to which files will be downloaded when working in the standard mode and where the files from the update directory will be stored when working in the local mode. The names of subdirectories in this directory will contain the product ID, for which the updates are intended as well as the date and time when the update has been received. By default, the downloads subdirectory in the update service installation directory is used.

The storage clean period. Files are deleted from the storage after the specified period of time. Possible values:

None

SixMonth
