Campbell Scientific RTDAQ Software - Manual (Page 95)

Section 5. Program Creation and Editing
This dialog box will be displayed the very first time you create a program for a
specific datalogger type; it will not be displayed thereafter. With each
subsequent program you create, the integration you chose when the datalogger
was initialized in Short Cut will be used. However, you can change the
integration from the Program menu. If you make this change, the setting will
remain in effect for all programs for that datalogger type (whether they are new
programs or edited programs) until it is changed again.
The last dialog box displayed is the Sensor Support dialog box. (This dialog
box will not be displayed when creating a CR9000X program.) This is used to
select which group of sensor files will be displayed when creating a program:
Campbell Scientific, Inc. (CSI, USA) or Campbell Scientific, Ltd. (CSL, UK).
The standard set of Short Cut sensor files was created by CSI; however, CSL
has created some additional files that are customized for their client base.
When one option is selected, the sensor files developed specifically for the
other are filtered out.
This setting is similar to the Integration setting in that the dialog box will be
displayed only the first time you create a program for a specific datalogger
type, and the setting will apply to all programs created or edited for that
datalogger, unless it is changed via the Program menu. Note that programs
containing sensor files that are filtered from the list of Available Sensors will
still load and work correctly in Short Cut.
The Integration and the Sensor Support settings are persistent
settings for each datalogger model. The first time you create a
program for a particular datalogger model, you will be presented
with these two dialog boxes. The state of these settings is saved
between Short Cut sessions. Any subsequent new or edited
programs that are generated after a setting has been changed will
reflect the change as well. NOTE
Each time you create the first program for a datalogger model
you will be presented with these dialog boxes (e.g., the first time
you create a CR10X program, you must initialize these settings;
the first time you create a CR1000 program, you must initialize
these settings).
The settings can be changed at any time and the datalogger
program will be regenerated to use the new setting when you
click the Finish button on the Home screen.
