Section 7. Creating and Editing Datalogger Programs
If you are trying to minimize the size of your DLD file but still want to be able
to monitor input locations in the software, you can put all of the labels that you
want to view at the beginning of your list of input locations, and put the labels
for scratch and less important values at the end. Then, use the second option
above to display only those values of interest.
7.4.16 Power Up Settings/Compile Settings
These two options allow you to clear or retain settings for ports, flags, storage
locations, and timers when the datalogger is powered-up or when a program is
compiled. Whether it is advantageous to clear or retain these settings depends
on your application. For most applications, it is best to keep the default option
of Do not change current datalogger Power-up settings. The affected settings
are:
Port Status – The state of the ports (high/low) the last time the datalogger
was on.
Flag Status – The state of the flags (high/low) the last time the datalogger
was on.
User Timer – Allows you to continue timing events that occurred when
the datalogger was on last.
Input Storage – Allows the values that were stored in the input locations
before you turned the datalogger off to be included in the sample, average,
and total when you turn the datalogger back on.
Intermediate Storage – Allows data processing to continue from when
the datalogger was on last.
Not all dataloggers have a Compile Settings option. This option
refers only to the CR510, CR10X, and CR23X.
7.4.17 Datalogger Serial Port Settings
The serial port settings are used to set the baud rate to which the datalogger’s
port(s) should be set when the datalogger is powered-up or when a program is
compiled. If the “Do not change current CS I/O Port settings” option is
selected, the baud rate option used will be that at which the datalogger is
currently using.
When the “Fixed Baud Rate” check box has been selected, the datalogger is
forced to communicate at the baud rate selected. When it is not selected, the
datalogger will first try to use the initial baud rate, but will try the other baud
rates if it cannot connect.
The CR23X has an “RS232 Power Always On” check box. This keeps the
power to the RS232 port on at all times. In some instances, this may be
desirable but it consumes much more power than when the datalogger turns on
the port as needed.
Not all dataloggers have a Serial Port Settings option. This option
refers only to the CR510, CR10X, and CR23X.
