7.3.3 Toolbar

The toolbar of the CRBasic Editor provides easy access to frequently used

operations.

New – Creates a new program window to start writing a new

program. If you have defined a default template, the new program

will start with the defined template instructions.

Open – Brings up a File Open dialog to select a program file to open.

File extension filters are provided to list only files of a certain type

such as .cr5 files for CR5000 programs. Data files (*.dat) can also

be opened.

Save – Saves any changes to the currently opened program. If this is

a new program and has not been saved yet, a Save As dialog will

prompt you for the file name and location to save the file. A table

definition file (*.tdf) of the same name as the saved program will also

be created. Refer to the online documentation for more information

about using table definition files.

Compile, Save, and Send – Saves any changes to the currently

opened program, checks it for errors with the pre-compiler, and sends

the file to the datalogger via LoggerNet, PC400, or RTDAQ.

LoggerNet, PC400, or RTDAQ must be running for this function to

work properly.

Print – Prints the currently opened program.

Print Preview – Opens a Print Preview screen that will show what

the program will look like when printed. You can check and set the

margins and printer options.
