Campbell Scientific CR9000X Measurement and Control System - Manual (Page 375)

Section 9. Program Control Instructions
NewFieldNames (OldNames, NewNames)
When using the NewFieldNames instruction, a variable array is given a
generic name. Whenever the NewFieldNames instruction is executed, the next
available generic variable in a data table will be assigned a new name from the
NewNames string.
This instruction accommodates smart sensors that return a unique name as part
of a data string (where the unique name can be parsed out of the string and
used for the NewName) or the addition of a Campbell Scientific wireless
sensor into an existing wireless sensor network.
When a NewName is assigned to a generic variable, the table
definitions in the datalogger will change. Thus, any operation
that relies on the datalogger's table definitions will be affected
(for example, if scheduled data collection is taking place, when
the generic variable's name is changed a backup file will be
created for the existing *.dat file and a new file, with the new
header information, will be written). NOTE
Parameter
& Data Type Enter NEWFIELDNAMES PARAMETERS
OldNames
Variable array
The OldNames parameter is the name for the variable array assigned to the generic variable(s).
NewNames
Variable Array
The NewNames parameter is a string that will be used to populate the generic variable field
names when the NewFieldNames instruction is run. Multiple names in a list should be
separated with commas.
PortSet (ExSlot, Port, State, Delay)
This Instruction will set the specified control port on the CR9060 Excitation
Module high or low.
This instruction is controlled by the task sequencer, which sets up the
measurement order. This results in the PortSet operation always occurring
directly after the measurement instruction preceding it in the program. The
State parameter can be set conditionally.
This instruction must not be placed inside a conditional
statement, Slow Sequence Scan or Sub Scan. NOTE
Parameter
& Data Type Enter PORTSET PARAMETERS
ExSlot
Constant
The slot that holds the 9060 Excitation Module on which to set the port.
Port
Constant
The number of the port to set with the instruction.
State The state (high or low) to set the port to.
Constant, Value State
Variable, or 0 Low
Expression ≠ 0 High
Delay
Constant
The time, in microseconds, to delay the task sequencer after setting the designated port to the
state declared by the State argument.
