Preface — What's New in RTDAQ?
In addition to these Short Cut changes, RTDAQ has some changes including:
• The user can now select an image for the background of a Graph, Fast
Graph, or XY Plot.
• The Add, Delete, Delete All, and Trace Option buttons have been moved
to a toolbar on the Graph, Fast Graph, and XY Plot.
• You can now edit fields in the Table Monitor.
• You can now toggle between data displays by pressing the data display
type button (e.g. Graph) on the toolbar with multiple data displays of that
type already open.
• A status bar has been added to the graphs to show the timestamp and
record number of the last record.
• The processing and displaying of data has been optimized in the Fast
Graph.
• An option to provide feedback on RTDAQ has been added to the RTDAQ
Toolbar’s Help menu.
Other applications included with RTDAQ have new features as described
below:
CRBasic Editor
• A “Select .PCK Values” button has been added to the SDMCAN
instruction parameter dialog box in the CRBasic Editor. When pressed, the
user can specify a PCK file from which to select the CAN-bus value to be
returned. (PCK files are generated by the DBC to SDMCan converter.)
• The CRBasic Editor now gives you the option to Save and Encrypt a file.
Encrypted files can be compiled in the datalogger but cannot be read by a
user.
• Dim variables can now be declared within a subroutine or function and are
local to that subroutine or function. The same variable name can be used
within other subroutines or functions or as a global variable without
conflict. The F9 and F10 pop-up pick list will include the local variables
for a specific subroutine or function if the cursor is within that subroutine
or function.
• F11 can now be used to bring up a pop-up pick list that contains all user-
defined functions found in the program.
• A new button has been added to the toolbar (blue arrow) which takes the
cursor to user-defined functions and subroutines.
• A new shortcut, CTRL-Y, has been added that will delete the current line.
• Several options have been added to the Editor Preferences dialog box
including: Variable Name Matching, Create .TDF File at Compile, Clear
