serial number inserted.
A second instance of a setting can be configured using the same node PakBus
address and same file type, in which case two files will be written according to
each of the two settings. For example,
(55,USR:photo.JPG,100)
(55:USR:NewestPhoto.JPG,0)
will store two files each time a JPG file is received from node 55. They will be
named USR:photonnn.JPG and USR:NewestPhoto.JPG. This feature is used
when a number of files are to be retained, but a copy of one file whose name
never changes is also needed. The second instance of the file can also be
serialized and used when a number of files are to be saved to different drives.
Entering 3212 as the PakBus address activates storing IP trace information to a
file. The "number of files" parameter specifies the size of the file. The file is a
ring file, so the newest tracing is kept. The boundary between newest and oldest
is found by looking at the time stamps of the tracing. Logged information may be
out of sequence.
Example:
(3212, USR:IPTrace.txt, 5000)
This syntax will create a file on the USR: drive called IPTrace.txt that will grow
to approximately 5 KB in size, and then new data will begin overwriting old data.
8.3.4.3 Data Preservation
Associated with file attributes is the option to preserve data in CR1000 memory
when a program is sent. This option applies to data table SRAM, CompactFlash
®
(CF), and
datalogger support software
(p. 512)
cache data
(p. 511).
Depending on the
application, retention of data files when a program is downloaded may be
desirable. When sending a program to the CR1000 with datalogger support
software
Send
command, data are always deleted before the program runs. When
the program is sent using support software
File Control
Send
(p. 515)
command or
CRBasic Editor
Compile, Save and Send
(p. 511)
command, options to preserve
(not erase) or not preserve (erase) data are presented. The logic in the table
Data-
Preserve Options
(p. 386)
summarizes the disposition of CR1000 data depending on
the data preservation option selected.
