Section 1. Introduction
34
In earlier days, Campbell Scientific dataloggers greeted our customers with a
cheery HELLO at the flip of the ON switch. While the user interface of the CR6
datalogger has advanced beyond those simpler days, you can still hear the cheery
HELLO echoed in voices you hear at Campbell Scientific.

1.3 Capturing CRBasic Code
Many examples of CRBasic code are found throughout this manual. The manual
is designed to make using this code as easy as possible. Keep the following in
mind when copying code from this manual into CRBasic Editor :
If an example crosses pages, select and copy only the contents of one page at a
time. Doing so will help avoid unwanted characters that may originate from page
headings, page numbers, and hidden characters.
