Section 9. Datalogger Program Creation with CRBasic Editor

9.3.2 Compile, Save, and Send

The CRBasic Editor allows you to send a program to a datalogger that has
already been defined on the network map in LoggerNet, PC400, or RTDAQ.
This only works if LoggerNet, PC400, or RTDAQ is running at the time you
attempt to send the program.

This function first checks the program for errors using the pre-compiler, then
saves the program (using the current name, or by prompting the user for a
name if the program is new). After the compile and save, this function sends
the program to a user-specified datalogger. To do this, use the Compile, Save
and Send
item on the File menu or Compile menu, or you can press the
corresponding button on the toolbar.

When a file is sent to the datalogger using Compile, Save, and
Send and the software is not actively connected to the
datalogger, the software connects to the datalogger, sends the
file, retrieves table definitions, and then disconnects. There will
be little indication in the software that a connection was
established.

NOTE

When this function is chosen a dialog box is displayed. Below is the dialog box
for a CR1000 datalogger:
