NL116 Ethernet and CompactFlash® Module CAUTION 5. Overview LoggerNet File Control should not be used to retrieve an open file (for example, a file created using CardOut or the latest file created by TableFile, option 64) from a CF card. Using File Control to retrieve the data can result in a corrupted data file. However, File Control can be used to retrieve closed files such as JPEG images or files (other than the latest) created by TableFile, option 64. CAUTION FIGURE 5-1. NL116 Ethernet/CompactFlash® Module The NL116 Ethernet/CompactFlash® Module enables Ethernet communication with the datalogger. It also has a slot for a Type I or Type II CompactFlash® (CF) card (3.3 V, 75 mA). The NL116/CF card combination can be used to expand the datalogger memory, transport data/programs from the field site(s) to the office, upload power-up functions, and store JPEG images from a Campbell Scientific camera. Data stored on cards can be retrieved through a communications link to the datalogger or by removing the card and carrying it to a computer. The computer can read the CF card either with the CF1 adapter or 17752 reader/writer. The CF1 adapter allows the PC's PCMCIA card slot to read the CF card; the 17752 reader/writer allows the PC's USB port to read the CF card. User-supplied CF adapters may also be used. LoggerNet File Control should not be used to retrieve an open file (for example, a file created using CardOut or the latest file created by TableFile, option 64) from a CF card. Using File Control to retrieve the data can result in a corrupted data file. However, File Control can be used to retrieve closed files such as JPEG images or files (other than the latest) created by TableFile, option 64. 9

NL116 Ethernet/CompactFlash
®
Module
The NL116 Ethernet/CompactFlash
®
Module enables Ethernet communication
with the datalogger.
It also has a slot for a Type I or Type II CompactFlash
®
(CF) card (3.3 V, 75 mA).
The NL116/CF card combination can be used to expand the datalogger
memory, transport data/programs from the field site(s) to the office, upload
power-up functions, and store JPEG images from a Campbell Scientific
camera.
Data stored on cards can be retrieved through a communications link
to the datalogger or by removing the card and carrying it to a computer.
The
computer can read the CF card either with the CF1 adapter or 17752
reader/writer.
The CF1 adapter allows the PC’s PCMCIA card slot to read the
CF card; the 17752 reader/writer allows the PC’s USB port to read the CF card.
User-supplied CF adapters may also be used.
LoggerNet File Control
should not be used to retrieve an
open file (for example, a file created using CardOut or the
latest file created by TableFile, option 64) from a CF card.
Using
File Control
to retrieve the data can result in a
corrupted data file.
However,
File Control
can be used to
retrieve closed files such as JPEG images or files (other
than the latest) created by TableFile, option 64.
