Campbell CR300 series - 4. CR300 series data acquisition system components

14. Click Next.
15. Select a measurement from the Selected Measurements Available for Output list, then click
an output processing option to add the measurement to the Selected Measurements for
Output list. For the example program, select BattV and click the Minimum button to add it
to the Selected Measurements for Output list. Do not store the exact time that the
minimum occurred. Repeat this procedure for an Average PTemp_C and Average Temp_C.
16. Click Finish and give the program a meaningful name such as a site identifier. Click Save.
17. If LoggerNet or other data logger support software is running on your computer, and the
data logger is connected to the computer, you can choose to send the program. Generally
it is best to collect data first; so, we recommend sending the program using the instructions
in Sending a program to the data logger(p. 20). Click No, do not send the program to the
data logger.
TIP:
It is good practice to always retrieve data from the data logger before sending a
program; otherwise, data may be lost. See Collecting data(p. 23) for detailed
instruction.
18. Make note of the newly generated program location and filename. By default, programs
created with Short Cut are stored in C:\Campbellsci\SCWin\.
19. Close Short Cut.
If your data acquisition requirements are simple, you can probably create and maintain a data
logger program exclusively with ShortCut. If your data acquisition needs are more complex, the
files that ShortCut creates are a great source for programming code to start a new program or
add to an existing custom program using CRBasic. See the CRBasic Editor help for detailed
information on program structure, syntax, and each instruction available to the data logger
