          Interfacing File Format
--------------------------------------------------------

The following file explains how communication will take
place between the networking module and the uC.

The data to be passed from the uC to the computer will be
handled through a file. All incoming and outgoing data (from 
the perspective of the uC) will be written to a text file and
stored in SRAM. 

Upon request from a client (computer software) where the uC
IP address and port (on which the server is running) is supplied
the uC should open the data file with all tank details and send
out this file over the open Internet port one character at a time.

Following is the format of the file:

1. Each line of the file will contain one specific tank parameter.

2. Tank parameters are denoted by corresponding alpabets:
	A - pH
	B - Temp
	C - Feed Time (1)
	D - Feed Time (2)
	E - Daylight
	F - Night

3. The tank details are stored in the form:
	A14.3
   where A denotes pH and 14.3 would be the pH of the tank.
