7.8.20 Writing High-Frequency Data to CF
An advanced method for writing high-frequency time-series data to CompactFlash
(CF) cards is now available for CR1000 dataloggers. It supports 16-GB or
smaller CF cards. It improves the user interface by allowing smaller, user-
determined file sizes. This may be the most suitable method for writing to CF
cards, especially in high-speed measurement applications.
7.8.20.1 TableFile() with Option 64
Option 64 has been added as a format option for the CRBasic instruction
TableFile(). It combines the speed and efficiency of the CardOut() instruction
with the flexibility of the TableFile() instruction. CF cards up to 16 GB are
supported. TableFile() with
Option 64 , TOB3 is now available in CR1000
operating systems 25 or greater. TableFile() is a CRBasic instruction that creates
a file from a data table in datalogger CPU memory.
Option 64 directs that the file
be written in TOB3 format exclusively to the CRD: drive 1 .
Syntax for the TableFile() instruction is as follows:
TableFile (FileName, Option, MaxFiles, NumRecs/
TimeIntoInterval, Interval, Units, OutStat, LastFileName)
where Option is given the argument of 64 . Refer to CRBasic Editor Help 2 for a
detailed description of each parameter.
Note The CRD: drive (the drive designation for the optional CF card) is the only
drive that is allowed for use with
Option 64 .
Note Larger cards are primarily intended for storing high-frequency data in
applications wherein storage cards are changed out frequently. Large cards may
