import data txt to loggernet


kokihualpa Feb 13, 2017 08:53 PM

i want to know if is possible import a file in txt format and the loggernet read its content in a program and make a new table with that?


GaryTRoberts Feb 14, 2017 04:59 AM

LoggerNet currently does not support this feature.  Sorry.


kokihualpa Feb 14, 2017 01:13 PM

but a datalogger can only read it?


GaryTRoberts Feb 14, 2017 05:42 PM

Yes,  You could read the text file and parse it with the datalogger.  Once the data is stored in tables on the datalogger, LoggerNet could then collect the data from the tables in the datalogger.

is with the instruction FileRead() ?


GaryTRoberts Feb 14, 2017 07:06 PM

Yes.

kokihualpa,

Please explain more about what you are trying to accomplish. There might be a better way.

thank you janet

look we have an equipment GRIMM EDM180 for monitoring PM10 and PM2.5. and that unit cant communicate with the datalogger campbell with serial port and with commands. so we need generate some alerts when the values PMs exceed limits.

Now that unit connect with a PC permanently can generate files ".txt" automatically and with the data of PMs that we want.

WELL I WANT THE DATALOGGER CR1000 OR CR800, ETC.  CAN READ THAT FILES ".TXT" AND EXTRACT THE VALUES OF PMs IN A PROGRAM PERMANENTLY. AND THEN GENERATE ALERTS IF THE VALUES EXCEED SOME LIMITS.

THAT IS THE REASON BECAUSE WE NEED THE DATALOGGER READ AND EXTRACT SOME DATA FROM A FILE.


kokihualpa Feb 14, 2017 09:06 PM

THE IDEA IS THAT THE CR1000 READ A FILE ".TXT" STORED IN A PC.

EXAMPLE:

C:\Users\proyectjefe\Desktop\GRIMM140217.TXT

AND EXTRACT SOME DATA FOR PROCESS IN THE PROGRAM.

Have you tried to get the EDM180 to communicate directly with your CR1000? This paper: https://s.campbellsci.com/documents/us/technical-papers/serial.pdf is a great resource for serial communication.
