7.2 Datalogger Programming
Short Cut is the best source for up-to-date datalogger programming code.
If your data acquisition requirements are simple, you can probably create and
maintain a datalogger 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.
Short Cut
cannot edit programs after they are imported and edited
in CRBasic Editor.
A
Short Cut
tutorial is available in Section 4 ,
QuickStart
(p. 1)
. If you wish to
import Short Cut code into CRBasic Editor to create or add to a customized
program, follow the procedure in Appendix A , Importing Short Cut Code Into
CRBasic Editor
(p. A-1)
. Programming basics are provided in the following
section. A complete program example can be found in Appendix B ,

Programs
(p. B-1)
.
If the 108 probe is to be used with long cable lengths or in electrically noisy
environments, consider employing the measurement programming techniques
outlined in Section 8.3 ,
Electrically Noisy Environments
(p. 9)
, and Section 8.4 ,
Long Cable Lengths
(p. 9)
.
Details of 108 probe measurement and linearization of the thermistor output
are provided in Section 8.2 , Measurement and Output Linearization
(p. 8)
.
