CR800 and CR850 Overview
conflicting use of measurement hardware. In this scheme the main scan has
the highest priority and prevents other sequences from using measurement
hardware until the main scan is completed (including processing). Other tasks,
such as processing from other sequences and communications, can occur while
the main sequence is running. Once the main scan has finished other
sequences have access to measurement hardware with the order of priority
being the background calibration sequence followed by the slow sequences in
the order they are declared in the program. Note that Measurement tasks have
priority over other tasks such as processing and communication to allow
accurate timing needed within most measurement instructions, e.g.
integrations.
OV2.4 Data Tables
The CR800 can store individual measurements or it may use its extensive
processing capabilities to calculate averages, maxima, minima, histograms,
FFTs, etc., on periodic or conditional intervals. Data are stored in tables such
as listed in Table OV2-1. The values to output are selected when running
ShortCut or when writing a datalogger program directly.

OV2.5 PakBus

Communication with the CR800
The CR800 uses the PakBus network communications protocol. PakBus
increases the number of communications and networking options available to
the datalogger. In addition to communicating via its RS-232 and/or CS I/O
ports, the CR800 can also communicate via the digital I/O COM ports.
Some of the advantages of PakBus are:
• Routing – the CR800 can act as a router, passing on messages intended
for another logger. PakBus supports automatic route detection and
selection.
• Short distance networks with no extra hardware – A CR800 can talk to
another CR800 over distances up to 30 feet by connecting 3 wires
between the dataloggers: transmit, receive, and ground. A PC
communicating with one of these loggers (e.g. via a phone modem or RF
to the CS I/O port) can be routed through that datalogger to the other
datalogger.
