Accessing your NMR data remotely

via Software:

We recommend installing a client on your desktop to do file transfers between the nmr instruments and your desktop or laptop (in other words, to download data from the nmr instrument to your own computer):

For Windows users: the two we’ve had success with and are easy to install and use are:

• Filezilla - https://filezilla-project.org (click on "Download FileZilla Client" button and then download and install the version that matches your OS)

NOTE: this package is likely not supported on EinsteinIT administered computers

• WinSCP (this is the package preferred by Einstein IT for desktops administered by them) - winscp.net/eng/index.php 

For Mac users: 

• Fetch - popular software for Mac uses to transfer files between computers. It is free to Academic users: https://fetchsoftworks.com

NOTE: fetch license is free for academic users. To get license, fill out form on website: fetchsoftworks.com/fetch/free

• Filezilla - https://filezilla-project.org (download and install the version that matches your OS)

• BASH command-line tools are built into the Mac and can be used by anyone who is Linux-savvy

For Linux users: 

• Filezilla - https://filezilla-project.org (click on "Download FileZilla Client" button and then download and install the version that matches your OS) 

NOTE: this package is likely not supported on EinsteinIT administered computers

• command-line tools: 

• rsync -auv /home/dave/geocoder dave@nostromo.local:/home/dave/Downloads (use the "u" option to skip files that are newer on the destination directory) 

NOTE: use "man rsync" to get all flags

• sftp (see www.tecmint.com/sftp-command-examples for examples)

Install client software on your computer if you don’t have it already. 

Once you start the software on your computer, connect to the nmr instrument using the IP address below and your username and password for that instrument. If your computer is networked via hardwire on campus or on MonteRadius WiFi, the nmr instrument should allow the connection.

Use the following IP address (as hostname) to connect to the machine:

• Bruker_AV300: computer name is av300l; IP is 10 - 49 - 57 - 211 (use dot format xx.yy.zz.aa)

• Bruker_AV600: computer name is av600l; IP is 10 - 49 - 57 - 85  (use dot format xx.yy.zz.aa)

Use port 22 for the connection. Fetch users should connect using the "SFTP" option 

Once connected, it is easy to copy folders within your nmr subdirectory to a directory on your computer. Once they are on your computer, they can be opened using your favorite NMR processing and analysis package such as TopSpin or Mnova.
