Section 7. Creating and Editing Datalogger Programs

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.

When this function is chosen a dialog box is displayed. Below is the dialog box

for a CR1000 datalogger:

The

Select the destination list shows all dataloggers configured within

LoggerNet, PC400, or RTDAQ that may receive a program matching the

extension of the current CRBasic program to be sent. Assume, for example,

that you have three CR1000s and some other dataloggers in your LoggerNet,

PC400, or RTDAQ network map. When you send a *.CR1 program, this

screen will show only the three CR1000 dataloggers. Any other dataloggers

will be excluded from the list in this case, even when they are defined in the

network map, because those dataloggers are not associated with *.CR1
