On this screen you can change the station
Name
, select the
Datalogger
model,
enter any
Security Code
, select which Allegro CE
Communication
port you
are using to connect to the datalogger, and associate a
Program
. When you are
finished editing the station parameters, touch
OK
.
The
Station
name can be any name up to 8 characters. It must contain alpha
and/or numeric characters and cannot contain any spaces.
The datalogger model of the station is chosen by pressing the arrow to the right
of the
Logger
field and selecting the desired datalogger type.
Dataloggers may have up to three levels of
Security
. Security is set when
creating the datalogger program or in the datalogger’s *C mode. If security is
enabled in the datalogger, you may need to enter the four-digit security code to
collect data, set the datalogger’s clock, and depending upon the level of
security, even to connect to the datalogger. Refer to the datalogger’s user
manual for complete information on security codes.
A
Program File
can be associated with the datalogger to provide labels for the
input locations when viewing them on the Measurements tab. (Note that only
DLD files created with Edlog version 2.0 and greater will have these labels
stored in the DLD.) If a program is already running in the datalogger and you
have a copy of the DLD on the Allegro CE, you can associate the program with
the station. When you download a new program to the datalogger using
PConnectCE
, you will be asked if you want the label descriptions to be
changed to reflect the new program.
The communication mode can be specified by selecting it from the
Communication
field.
PConnectCE for the Allegro
supports direct serial
communication and point-to-multipoint RF400 radio communication (see
Section 3).
When the RF400 is selected, an RF Net Address and an RF Radio Address
must be entered. These two settings must reflect the settings in the remote
RF400 radio.
PConnectCE for the Allegro
will temporarily set the RF base
modem's addresses to the addresses specified, and then return them to the
previous values after you disconnect.
