unobstructed view of, the better the GPS performance. Better GPS performance
will show up as less or no missed transmissions. Poor GPS antenna placement
will increase the number of missed transmissions, or possibly stop all
transmission.
7.5 CRBasic Programming
This section covers CRBasic programming concepts. Not all options are
available for the CR5000 and CR295(X) data loggers. There are four program
instructions directly related to the TX321 GOES transmitter:
GOESData
,
GOESStatus
,
GOESGPS
and
GOESSetup
.
7.5.1 GOESData()
The
GOESData()
instruction is used to send data from the data logger to the
TX321 transmitter. Each time
GOESData()
is executed, data is ordered with
the newest data to be transmitted first.
There are five parameters to the
GOESData()
instruction:
Result Code
,
Data
Table
,
Table Option
,
Buffer Control
, and
Data Format
.
In
GOESData()
,
Table Option
,
Buffer Control
,
and
Data Format
can be
variables declared as type long. Error checking is done at run time instead of
(p. 29)
, for run-time error codes and
their descriptions.
CRBasic data loggers store time of maximum or minimum as number of
seconds since 1990, which does not work for GOES transmission.
7.5.1.1 Result Code
The
Result Code
is used to determine if the
GOESData()
instruction executed
successfully. When successful,
GOESData()
will return a
0
to the
Result Code
variable. When
GOESData()
executes successfully, but there is no new data in
the specified table, the
Result Code
is set to
100
. See Section
(p. 29)
, for details regarding result codes.
7.5.1.2 Data Table
The
Data Table
argument is used to specify which data table the
GOESData()
instruction is to copy data from.
7.5.1.3 Table Option
The
Table Option
is used to specify what data is copied from the data table.
There are three options. Use
0
to specify all new data. Use
1
to specify only the
most current record. Use any other positive number to specify the number of
records to be copied each time
GOESData()
is executed. When copying data,
the entire record, except the timestamp and record number, is copied from the
data logger to the TX321 transmitter.
7.5.1.4 Buffer Control
Buffer Control
is used to determine which buffer data is copied to, and if the
buffer is erased before data is copied to the buffer. Use
0
to append to the self-
timed buffer; use
1
to overwrite the self-timed buffer. Use
2
to append to the
random buffer, and
3
to overwrite the random buffer. Use
9
to erase the
random buffer.
