Model 108 Temperature Probe
7. Installation
If you are programming your datalogger with Short Cut, skip Section 7.1,
Wiring to Datalogger, and Section 7.2, Datalogger Programming. Short Cut
does this work for you. See Section 4, Quickstart, for a Short Cut tutorial.

7.2 Datalogger Programming
Short Cut is the best source for up-to-date datalogger programming code.
Programming code is needed when:
• Creating a program for a new datalogger installation.
• Adding sensors to an existing datalogger program.
If your data acquisition requirements are simple, you can probably create and
maintain a datalogger program exclusively with Short Cut. If your data
acquisition needs are more complex, the files that Short Cut creates are a great
source for programming code to start a new program or add to an existing
custom program.
Short Cut cannot edit programs after they are imported and edited
in CRBasic Editor.
A Short Cut tutorial is available in Section 4, Quickstart. If you wish to import
Short Cut code into either Edlog or CRBasic Editor to create or add to a
customized program, follow the procedure in Appendix A.1, Importing Short
Cut Code into a Program Editor. Programming basics for CRBasic and Edlog
dataloggers are provided in the following sections. Complete program
examples for select dataloggers can be found in Appendix B, Example
Programs.
If the 108 probe is to be used with long cable lengths or in electrically noisy
environments, consider employing the measurement programming techniques
