Hi, I'm trying to set up a CR1000 datalogger to transmit to the RAWS network via GOES satellite. The data table is transmitting successfully but the format is unacceptable to the RAWS system managers, who are retrieving our data.
This is the problem: currently the data is output as ASCII floating point, with commas between each variable in a record. The RAWS network needs there to be a newline rather than a comma between each variable, as well as between each record.
There's a setting in the GoesData(DataFormat) command that's formatted like this, the RAWS7 option, but it seems like that option causes the transmitter to search for and send only certain variables - and they don't match up with the ones we have.
Is there any way we can use this setting with different variables?
Or is there a quick way to replace the comma between variables with a newline character? I've figured out (through this forum) that there's a long way to do it - to sample the data from the comma-separated table, add newline characters and store the new strings in a new table, which would then get sent to the transmitter...but I wanted to see if there was a quicker solution before I went that route. Any ideas would be MUCH appreciated - thanks.
