Changes in PC208W 3.0
Setup
Improved Modem Communication - Setting up remote communications is
easier with PC208W's new modem configurations. PC208W uses hardware
flow control, verbose result codes (looking for “ CONNECT” back from the
modem rather than a number), and error correction which is consistent with the
newer, faster modems. Just pick your modem from a list, and you should be
ready to communicate. If your modem is not in the list, the default modem
will work in most instances.
If you used a custom modem string in a previous version of
PC208W, please refer to the special upgrade information
provided in Section 1.4, Installation.
User-determined FSA 2 Data File Names - PC208W now lets you specify
different names for data files from Final Storage Areas 1 and 2.
New Clock Offset - A clock offset feature has been added to make it easier to
set the datalogger time for different time zones or daylight savings.
Updated Scheduling Capability - Datalogger schedules can now be copied to
one or more datalogger stations. When you have one station's schedule set up,
simply click a button to apply those settings to other stations. This helps you
set up your data collection schedules in less time and with less effort.
Datalogger Call-back - If you use call-back with your dataloggers, you’ll
notice that PC208W automatically tries to initialize the COM port. Check the
Help on “ Call-back” for details on properly setting up the network.
Connect
New Numeric Monitor - The Numeric Monitor is now a stand-alone window
that is opened separately from the other Connect screen views. This 17-column
