7.4 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

when 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, Importing Short Cut

Code Into CRBasic or Edlog Editor. Programming basics for CRBasic and

Edlog dataloggers are provided below. Complete program examples for select

dataloggers can be found in Appendix B, Example Programs.

The output from the CS300 is 0.2 mV per Wm

–2

. The voltage signal from the

CS300 is measured using the single-ended voltage instruction (

VoltSE in

CRBasic or

Volt (SE) (P1) in Edlog). Dataloggers that use CRBasic include

the CR200(X), CR800, CR850, CR1000, CR3000, CR5000, and CR9000(X).

Dataloggers that use Edlog include CR7, CR10(X), CR510, and CR23X.

Solar radiation can be recorded as an average flux density (W m

–2

) or daily

total flux (MJ m

–2

). The appropriate multipliers are listed in TABLE 7-2.

Negative values should be set to zero before being processed.
