Sensor Support

The Sensor Support option is used to select which group of sensor files will be displayed when creating a program: Campbell Scientific, Inc., (CSI) or Campbell Scientific, Ltd. (CSL). The standard set of Short Cut sensor files was created by CSI; however, CSL has created some additional files that are customized for their client base. When one option is selected, the sensor files developed specifically for the other are filtered out.

This dialog box is displayed the very first time you create a program for a specific datalogger type; it will not be displayed thereafter. With each subsequent program you create, the group of sensor files that you chose when the datalogger was initialized in Short Cut will be used. However, you can change this setting at any time. If you make a change, the setting will remain in effect for all programs for that datalogger type (whether they are new programs or edited programs) until it is changed again.
