PC / Windows

®

compatible software products are available from Campbell

Scientific to facilitate CR1000 programming, maintenance, data retrieval, and
data presentation. PC200W and ShortCut are designed for novice integrators,
but have features useful in some applications. PC400, RTDAQ, and
LoggerNet

TM

provide increasing levels of power required for advanced

integration, programming and networking applications. Support software for
PDA and Linux applications are also available.

PC200W

PC200W utilizes an intuitive user interface to support direct serial
communication to the CR9000X via COM / RS-232 ports. It sends programs,
collects data, and facilitates monitoring of digital measurement and process
values. PC200W is available at no charge from the Campbell Scientific web
site.

ShortCut is included as the only means for Programming the Loggers. This
package does not include the CRBasic Editor.

editor, ShortCut Program generator, point-to-point communications over
several communications protocols, simple real-time digital and graphical
monitors, and report generation. PC400 supports all contemporary dataloggers
and many retired dataloggers (e.g., CR510, CR23X, CR10X).

PC400 does not support scheduled collection or multi-mode communication
networks.

RTDAQ

RTDAQ is targeted for industrial and other high-speed data acquisition
applications. It includes real time windows for monitoring FFTs, Histograms,
Rainflow Histograms, X/Y Plots, and dynamic plotting windows for fast
updates. It includes Program Generators for the CR5000 and CR9000X data
loggers for easy pick n click programming as well as the CRBasic editor for
more complex programming .

RTDAQ supports all contemporary dataloggers but does not support Legacy
loggers (e.g., 21X, CR7, CR510, CR23X, CR10X), nor does it support the
