NL116 Ethernet and CompactFlash ® Module
The CardConvert software included in LoggerNet , PC400 , and PC200W will
convert data files from one format into another.
7.2.2 Program Files
The CF card can be used to provide extra program-storage space for the
datalogger. Program files can be copied to the card while it is attached as a
drive on the computer. They can also be sent to the card using LoggerNet File
Control . They may also be copied from CPU memory to the card (or from the
card to CPU memory) using the CR1000KD.
7.2.3 Power-up Files (Powerup.ini)
Users can insert a properly-configured CF card into the NL116, cycle through
the datalogger power, and have power-up functions automatically performed.
Power-up functions of CompactFlash ® cards can include:
a) Sending programs to the CR1000 or CR3000
b) Setting attributes of datalogger program files
c) Setting disposition of old CF files
d) Sending an OS to the CR1000 or CR3000
e) Formatting memory drives
f) Deleting data files
Test the power-up functions in the office before going into
the field to ensure the power-up file is configured correctly.
The key to the CF power-up function is the powerup.ini file, which contains a
list of one or more command lines. At power-up, the powerup.ini command
line is executed prior to compiling the program. Powerup.ini performs three
operations:
1) Copies the specified program file to a specified memory drive
2) Sets a file attribute on the program file
3) Optionally deletes CF data files from the overwritten (just previous)
program
Powerup.ini takes precedence during power-up. Though it sets file attributes
for the programs it uploads, its presence on the CF does not allow those file
attributes to control the power-up process. To avoid confusion, either remove
the CF card or delete the powerup.ini file after the powerup.ini upload.
7.2.3.1 Creating and Editing Powerup.ini
Powerup.ini is created with a text editor, then saved as “powerup.ini”.
Some text editors (such as WordPad) will attach header
information to the powerup.ini file, causing it to abort. Check the
text of a powerup.ini file with the datalogger keyboard display to
see what the datalogger actually sees.
