Campbell CR800 Series - File Management in CR800 Memory; Formatting Drives; Manual Data-Table Reset; Program Send Reset

Section 8. Operation
416
Operating systems can also be sent using the program Send feature in datalogger
support software
(p. 86). A full reset does not occur in this case. Beginning with
CR800 operating system v.16, settings and fields in the Status table are preserved
when sending a subsequent operating system by this method; data tables are
erased. Rely on this feature only with an abundance of caution when sending an
OS to CR800s in remote, expensive to get to, or difficult-to-access locations.
8.8.3.2 Program Send Reset
Final-storage (p. 499) data are erased when user programs are uploaded, unless
preserve / erase data options are used. Preserve / erase data options are presented
when sending programs using File Control Send
(p. 498) command and CRBasic
Editor Compile, Save and Send
(p. 494). See Preserving Data at Program Send (p.
170)
for a more-detailed discussion of preserve / erase data at program send.
8.8.3.3 Manual Data-Table Reset
Data-table memory is selectively reset from
• Support software Station Status
(p. 516) command
• CR1000KD Keyboard/Display: Data | Reset Data Tables
8.8.3.4 Formatting Drives
CPU:, USR:, andUSB: drives can be formatted individually. Formatting a drive
erases all files on that drive. If the currently running user program is found on
the drive to be formatted, the program will cease running and any SRAM data
associated with the program are erased. Drive formatting is performed through
datalogger support software
Format (p. 498) command.
8.8.4 File Management in CR800 Memory
As summarized in table File Control Functions (p. 416), files in CR800 memory
(program, data, CAL, image) can be managed or controlled with datalogger
support software
(p. 86), the CR1000KD keyboard/display (see Keyboard Display
— Details
(p. 443)), Web API (p. 435, p. 435), or CoraScript (p. 493). Use of CoraScript is
described in the LoggerNet software manual, which is available at
www.campbellsci.com. More information on file attributes that enhance
datalogger security, see the Security — Overview
(p. 84) section.
