Section 5. Overview

Data stored on a memory card are collected to a PC through a comms link with
the CR6 or by removing the card and collecting it directly using a third-party
adapter on a PC.
5.3.4.1 Comms
The CR6 accesses data on the card as needed to fill data-collection requests
initiated with the datalogger support software
Collect
(p. 576)
command. An
alternative, if care is taken, is to collect data in binary form. Binary data are
collected using the datalogger support software

Retrieve
(p. 583)
command. Before collecting data this way, stop the CR6 program to ensure data
are not written to the card while data are retrieved, or data will be corrupted.
5.3.4.2 Direct with Adapter to PC
Data transfer is much faster through an adapter than through a comm link. This
speed difference is especially noticeable with large files.
The format of data files collected by direct connection of the card with a PC may
be different than the standard Campbell Scientific data file formats (binary —
format depends on the instruction used to write to the card). See section
Data
File Format Examples
(p. 498)
for more information. Binary data files can be
converted to a Campbell Scientific format using
CardConvert
(p. 575)
software.
5.3.5 Comms Protocols
The primary communication protocol is
PakBus
(p. 594).
PakBus is a protocol
proprietary to Campbell Scientific.

The CR6 communicates with
datalogger support software
(p. 663),
comms
peripherals
(p. 659),
and other
dataloggers
(p. 651)
with PakBus, a proprietary
network communication protocol. PakBus is a protocol similar in concept to IP
(Internet Protocol). By using signatured data packets, PakBus increases the
number of communication and networking options available to the CR6.
Communication can occur via TCP/IP, on the
USB
port,
CS I/O
port, and
U
or
C
terminals.
Advantages of PakBus are as follows:
•
Simultaneous communication between the CR6 and other devices.
