Technische Beschreibung

The CR850 consists of measurement electronics encased in a plastic shell with an integrated wiring panel, 16- character keyboard, and display screen. The display can show 8 lines x 21 characters (64 x 128 pixels). Custom menus are supported allowing customers to set up choices within the datalogger program that can be initiated by a simple “toggle” or “pick list”. Its keyboard and display screen is used to program the datalogger, manually initiate data transfer, and display data.

The CR850 uses an external  power supply. Low power consumption allows the it to operate for extended periods on a battery recharged with a solar panel—eliminating the need for AC power. The CR850 suspends execution when primary power drops below 9.6 V, reducing the possibility of inaccurate measurements.

The on-board operating system includes measurement, processing, and output instructions for programming the datalogger. The programming language, CRBasic, uses a BASIC-like syntax. Measurement instructions specific to bridge configurations, voltage outputs, thermocouples, and pulse/frequency signals are included. Processing instructions support algebraic, statistical, and transcendental functions for on-site processing. Output instructions process data over time and control external devices.

Additional Compatibility Information

Sensors

With several channel types, the CR850 is compatible with nearly every available sensor, including thermocouples, SDI-12 sensors, and 4 to 20 mA sensors. A custom ASIC chip expands its pulse count, control port, and serial communications capabilities. The CR850's I/O ports can be paired as transmit and receive, allowing serial communications with serial sensors and devices.

Measurement & Control Peripherals

The CR850 is compatible with all of our CDMs (requires an SC-CPI), SDMs, multiplexers, vibrating-wire interfaces, terminal input modules, and relays. 

Communications

The CR850 communicates with a PC via direct connect, NL201 Ethernet Interface, multidrop modems, short haul modems, phone modems (land line, digital cellular, and voice-synthesized), RF telemetry, and satellite transmitters (Argos and High Data Rate GOES).

Data can be viewed on its onboard keyboard display, CD100 Mountable Display with Keypad, user-supplied iOS or Android device (requires LoggerLink), CD295 DataView II Display, or a user-supplied PDA (PConnect or PConnectCE software required).

The SC115 is the only compatible external data storage device. The CR850 does not have a peripheral port and is therefore not compatible with the CFM100, NL115, or NL120.

Enclosures

The CR850 and its power supply can be housed in any of our standard enclosures. 

Power

Any 12 Vdc source can power the CR850 datalogger. Power supplies commonly used with the CR850 are the BPALK, PS100, and PS200. The BPALK provides eight non-rechargeable D-cell alkaline batteries with a 7.5 A h rating at 20°C.

Both the PS100 and PS200 consist of a sealed rechargeable 7 A h battery and a charging regulator. Their battery should be connected to a charging source (either a wall charger or solar panel). These two power supplies differ in their charging regulator. The PS100 has a standard regulator and the PS200 has a micro-controller-based smart regulator. The PS200's regulator provides two-step constant voltage charging and temperature compensation that optimize battery charging and increases the battery’s life.

Also available are the BP12 and BP24 battery packs, which provide nominal ratings of 12 and 24 A h, respectively. These batteries should be connected to a regulated charging source (e.g., a CH100 or CH200 connected to a unregulated solar panel or wall charger).

Software

CRBasic, the CR850's full programming language, supports simple or complex programming and many onboard data reduction processes.

Downloads

CR800 OS v.32.07 (4.41 MB) 15-05-2024

Execution of this download installs the CR800 Operating System and Compiler on your computer.  It also updates the CR800 support files for the CRBasic Editor.  

Note: This OS has crossed the 2 Meg CR800 size limit for remote download.  The OS must be downloaded to the 2 Meg CR800 via direct connect with the Device Configuration Utility.  All OS download methods are supported by the 4 Meg CR800.

Upgrading from versions prior to version 28 of the Operating System will reset the datalogger’s CPU drive.  This is due to a change in the format of the file system from FAT16 to FAT32.  In order for the datalogger to operate correctly, as part of the upgrade, the CPU drive is formatted to FAT32.  Any programs stored and running from the CPU drive will be lost.  It is not recommended to update the datalogger’s Operating System over a remote connection where program control regulates the communication equipment (turning it on or off, etc.).  In these cases, an on-site visit and a backup using DevConfig’s backup utility is necessary to update the datalogger’s Operating System.

Watch the Video Tutorial: Sending an OS to a Local Datalogger.

In all cases where the datalogger is being updated from an Operating System prior to 28, the use of DevConfig’s backup utility is recommended due to the CPU drive being formatted using the new FAT32 format.

  1. How can I troubleshoot FTP communications between my data logger and a server?

    Refer to the FTP Troubleshooting application note for help. 

  2. Can the CR850 be programmed to show information in the display without using the keyboard?
    Yes, using the DisplayMenu/EndMenu() and MenuItem instructions.
  3. Is it possible to overwrite an existing array using a CR850?
    Yes.
  4. Is the CR800 or CR850 compatible with an Iridium satellite transceiver?
    Yes. Many customers use the Iridium satellite transceiver.
  5. Does the CR800 or CR850 work with a 2 kHz (maximum) burst mode for the VoltDiff() instruction like the CR1000 does?

    Yes. The CR800 and CR850 are compatible with exactly the same options as the CR1000 but with a lower channel count.

  6. Is there any required calibration for the CR800 or CR850?
    Calibration is recommended every two years.
  7. Does the data from the CR800 or CR850 need to be downloaded before changing the 12 Vdc battery?
    No, unless the internal lithium battery is below 2.7 Vdc. The lithium battery helps preserve the data, program, and clock setting when the 12 Vdc battery is removed.
  8. Is it possible to connect a fiber optic line directly to the RS-232 interface on the CR800 or the CR850?
    No. A device is needed that can convert fiber optic to RS-232. Many customers have used products from B&B Electronics for this purpose.
  9. What is the required minimum voltage of the lithium battery on a CR800 or CR850?

    The lithium battery should be replaced when the voltage drops to 2.7 Vdc or below. The datalogger will continue to function normally when connected to a 12 Vdc source even if the lithium battery is below 2.7 Vdc; however, after the 12 Vdc source is removed from the datalogger, there is a risk of losing data, the program, and the clock setting.

  10. How many SDI sensors can the CR800 or CR850 handle?

    Multiple SDI-12 sensors can be connected to control ports C1 and C3 on the CR800. If multiple sensors are wired to a single channel, each sensor must have a unique address. SDI-12 standard version 1.3 sensors accept addresses 0 to 9, a to z, and A to Z.
