CR9000(X)/CR5000 Datalogger Run Now Options

The Run Now options and behavior for the CR9000(X) and CR5000
dataloggers are different from the CR1000, CR3000, and CR800 dataloggers.
Below is a dialog box for a CR9000X datalogger.

When Run Now is checked, the file will be sent with the Run Now attribute
set. With this attribute, the program is compiled and run in the datalogger. All
data tables on the CPU are erased. You have the option of whether or not to
erase data files stored on a card.

Run On Power-up

The file will be sent with the Run On Power-up attribute set. The program will
be run if the datalogger loses power and then powers back up.

Run Always

Run Now and Run On Power-up can both be selected. This sets the program's
file attribute in the datalogger as Run Always. The program will be compiled
and run immediately and it will also be the program that runs if the datalogger
is powered down and powered back up.

CR200 Datalogger Run Options

The CR200 does not have an on-board compiler. A compiled binary (*.bin)
file is sent to the datalogger. Run options are not applicable to this datalogger
and are therefore disabled.

Compress File

If the Compress File check box is selected, a renamed version of the CRBasic
program which has all unnecessary spaces, indentation, and comments
removed in order to minimize the file size will be sent to the datalogger
instead of the original program.
