datalogger. 
For a list of the commands and their 
meanings see the datalogger 
operator’s manual. 
BMP1 packet received
A BMP1 packet was 
received from the 
device. (CR10X-TD type 
devices only) 
RPC packet exchanged
A BMP3 packet was 
exchanged. (CR5000, 
CR9000 dataloggers 
only) 
Datalogger did not respond to 
end command 
The computer tried to 
terminate the connection 
but the datalogger did 
not acknowledge the 
shutdown. 
This is an indication that there is a 
communications problem between 
the computer and the datalogger. 
Check the cables and connectors 
and make sure the datalogger has 
power. 
Invalid low level signature
The packet received 
from the device got 
corrupted and the packet 
signature doesn’t match 
the packet contents. 
Check to find out where in the 
communications link noise or signal 
corruption is causing the data to be 
disrupted. 
Provider opened
The serial 
communications port has 
been initialized. 
Device dialed
The communications 
link has been initialized 
to transfer data packets. 
Provider closed
The serial 
communications port has 
been closed. 
Unable to Locate Serial synch 
byte 
 The low level 
communications 
synchronization byte 
was not received after 
the computer sent out a 
serial packet. 
This indicates that the device is 
either not responding or responding 
with an invalid communications 
protocol. This message would 
appear if trying to talk to an array 
based datalogger that is set up as a 
table based datalogger in the 
network map.
