Appendix C. Public Variables

Some of the variables in the AP200’s CRBasic program are included in the

Public table. These public variables may be displayed or edited with a

keyboard display or PC. Other program variables are hidden from the user to

reduce clutter in the Public table. Many of these public variables are saved in

the output tables. Some of the public variables allow the user to set the

operation of the system or to give diagnostic information. The intended usage

of the public variables is categorized as follows:

IRGA

measured directly by the IRGA

TAIR

air temperature (defined only if

N_AirTemps > 0)

DIAG

diagnostic

USER

user setting

INFO

provides information on system status

INFO/USER conditional user setting (may set if the sequence is stopped)

CONFIG

system configuration parameter - saved in file

sys_conf_var.dat.

The public variables are listed in TABLE C-1.
