A good practice is to always retrieve data from the CR1000 before sending a
program; otherwise, data may be lost.

7.8.3.1 Preserving Data at Program Send
When sending programs to the CR1000 through the software options listed in
table Program Send Options that Reset Memory
(p. 127), memory is reset and data
are erased.
When data retention is desired, send programs using the File Control Send
(p. 515)
command or CRBasic Editor command Compile, Save, Send in the Compile
menu. The window shown in the figure CRBasic Editor Program Send File
Control Window
(p. 127) is displayed before the program is sent. Select Run Now,
Run On Power-up, and Preserve data if no table changed before pressing Send
Program.
Note To retain data, Preserve data if no table changed must be selected
whether or not a Campbell Scientific mass storage device or memory card is
connected.
Regardless of the program-upload tool used, if any change occurs to data table
structures listed in table Data Table Structures
(p. 128), data will be erased when a
new program is sent.
