Appendix B. Status Table and Settings

Table 27. CR200(X) Settings

Settings are accessed through Campbell Scientific's Device Configuration Utility (DevConfig) for direct serial

connection, or through PakBusGraph for most telecommunications options.

Setting

Description

Default Entry

Max Packet Size

Specified the maximum size packet in bytes that should ever be

sent to the device.

1000

PakBus Address

This setting specifies the PakBus® address for this device. The

value for this setting must be chosen such that the address of

the device is unique in the scope of the datalogger network.

Duplication of PakBus® addresses in two or more devices can

lead to failures and unpredictable behavior in the PakBus®

network. The following values are the default addresses of

various types of software and devices and should probably be

avoided:

Device

PB Address

LoggerNet

4094

PC400

4093

PC200

4092

Visual Weather

4091

RTDAQ

4090

DevConfig

4089

NL100

1

Radio Installed

Specifies the model number of the MaxStream radio if it is

recognized by the datalogger. It will have a value of zero if

there is no radio recognized by the datalogger.

RF Network Address

Specifies the radio network address of the built-in radio. This

setting should be set to match the network address for the

RF400 base used to communicate with the datalogger.

0

RF Address

Specifies the address of the built-in radio. This value should

generally be set to match the same as the address of the

RF400 base used to communicated with the datalogger unless

that base is used to communicate with non-PakBus®

dataloggers (such as a CR10X).

0

RF Hop Sequence

Specifies the hopping sequence that will be used for the built-in

radio. This value should be set to match the value of the same

setting for the RF400 base station used to communicate with

this datalogger

0

Ignore RF Power Mode

If set to true (non-zero value), the RF power mode setting will

be ignored and the radio will be powered on all of the time.

0

RF Power Mode

This setting specifies the power wait state that will be set in the

built-in radio. This setting must be set so that the standby mode

of the radio is consistent with any other CR200(X) or

RF400/RF410/Rf415 with which this station must communicate.

The power modes supported include the following:

No Radio
Indicates that there is no radio hardware recognized by the

datalogger. The datalogger will not accept this value as an

input, but will report it if there is no radio hardware detected.

Always On
Indicates that the radio receiver circuit should always be ready

to receive data.
