STARLOG SOFTWARE PACKAGE - Model 6300A - Version 2.10

STARLOGGER - wrong SITE-ID size

9 June 1993

Problem

V2.1 Update Disks (dated prior to 9 June 1993) incorrectly sets the SITE-ID as two (2) bytes instead of one (1) byte in schemes generated for STARLOGGERs.

Symptom

Serial I/O instruments, such as the 6509 & 6531 Water Level, are incorrectly read by the STARLOGGER when used with a SITE-ID option.

Correction

This error is corrected in software version V2.11 (dated 9 June 1993).

Apply either Fix A) or Fix B) to correct this error. You must then “Edit & Save” Schemes that are effected by this error.

Fix A)... Edit the PDL.SRC file and correct the logger type test on LINE 213 (see below).

INCORRECT line 213 of PDL.SRC

        .if ver < 20 

CORRECTED line 213 of PDL.SRC

        .if ver < 30 

Fix B)... Reinstall from a Version 2 Update disk dated 9 June 1993 or later (NOTE: Existing Schemes ARE NOT altered during re-installation).
