Whether it is recording or idle, the instrument can activate its WiFi™ interface and try to connect to a server at regular intervals. The connection schedule is defined in that field. In order to enable that behavior, the following must be setup:

The Connect Interval must be set:                        The interval is often chosen as once per hour, or once per 10 min. Setting too short an interval (lower than 5 min) will drain the battery faster. Setting too long an interval (several days, a week or more) will risk losing data if the connection cannot be established at its scheduled time. The interval must not be set to 0. We do not advise setting a schedule interval lower than 2 min.
The WiFi-Report-Active button must be pressed:                When the button is released the instrument will not try to connect at the set interval.
A start date and time must be set sometime in the future:        The periodic connection attempts will only begin at the set date and time.
