Appendix B. Status Table and Settings

The CR200(X) status table contains system operating status information

accessible via PC software DevConfig, LoggerNet, PC400, RTDAQ, or

PC200W.

TABLE. Common Uses of the Status Table

(Appendix p. 15) lists

some of the more common uses of status table information.

TABLE. Status

Table Fields and Descriptions

(Appendix p. 16) is a comprehensive list of status

table variables with brief descriptions.

Status Table information is easily viewed by going to LoggerNet / PC400 /

RTDAQ / PC200W | Datalogger | Station Status. However, be aware that

information presented in Station Status is not automatically updated. Click the

refresh button each time an update is desired. Alternatively, use the Numeric

displays of the connect screen to show critical values and have these update

automatically, or use Devconfig, which polls the status table at regular intervals

without use of a refresh button. Note that a lot of comms and other activity is

needed to generate the Status Table, so if the CR200(X) is very tight on time,

just getting the Status Table itself repeatedly could push timing over the edge

and cause skipped scans.

Through the continued development of the operating system, the status table has

become quite large. A separate settings table has been introduced to slow the

growth of the status table. To maintain backward compatibility, settings first

included in the status table have been retained, but are also included in the

settings editor.
