The device (CPU, Card, or USR) is selected from the list box at the top of the
window. The files stored on the device are displayed in the field below.

Run - This option allows you to set the run attribute of a program file. Run
Now begins running the selected program immediately; all of the existing data
tables are deleted. Run on Start-up will set the file to run when the datalogger
is powered down and powered back up. Run Now and on Startup sets both the
Run Now and Run on Start-up options.

If a program has been stopped, but data tables have been
maintained, you will be presented with the options Restart
Program and Run On Power-up. If you choose Restart Program,
you will be asked whether to delete or maintain the existing
tables.

NOTE

Stop - Stops the execution of the program currently running in the datalogger.
You will be asked whether to delete or maintain the existing data tables.

Format - Formats the selected device. This option should be used with
caution, since all files stored on the device will be lost.

sent to the selected device. You can send a CR* program file, a voice text file,
operating system file, or other file type.

Retrieve – Retrieves a file stored on the datalogger’s CPU, CRD, or USR drive
to the PDA. Note that only program associated files are transferred when you
hot sync with the computer. JPG, Cal, or other files must be copied to the
computer manually.

Delete - Deletes the selected file from datalogger memory.
