2. The device only uploads no more than 300 data records per range enquiry. 3. When enquiring the data in time point, it will upload the data which is closest to the search point within the reporting interval range. For example, if the device's reporting interval is 10 minutes and users send command to search for 17:00's data, if the device find there is data stored in 17:00, it will upload this data; if not, it will search for data between 16:50 to 17:00 and upload the data which is closest to 17:00.

Example: 1. Enquire historical data between 2022/10/28 14:15:00 to 2022/10/28 15:45:00.
