print device
Any device capable of receiving output over pin 6 (the PE line) in a
receive‐only mode. Printers, "dumb" terminals, and computers in a
terminal mode fall in this category.
print peripheral
See print device (p. 439).
processing instructions
These instructions allow the user to further process input data values
and return the result to a variable where it can be accessed for output
processing. Arithmetic and transcendental functions are included in
these instructions.
program control instructions
Used to modify the execution sequence of instructions contained in
program tables; also used to set or clear flags.
Public
A CRBasic command for declaring and dimensioning variables. Variables
declared with Public can be monitored during datalogger operation.
pulse
An electrical signal characterized by a sudden increase in voltage follow
by a short plateau and a sudden voltage decrease.
regulator
A record is a complete line of data in a data table or data file. All data
on the line share a common time stamp.
regulator
A device for conditioning an electrical power source. Campbell Scientific
regulators typically condition ac or dc voltages greater than 16 Vdc to
about 14 Vdc.
resistance
A feature of an electronic circuit that impedes or redirects the flow of
electrons through the circuit.
