Short Cut for Windows 2.9 includes the following enhancements from 2.8:

• A new Datalogger step has been added to the Progress panel. In this step, you select the datalogger model and set the scan interval.  When generating a program for a CR9000X, the CR9000X Configuration box also appears on this screen.   
• When adding a sensor, if more than one of the selected sensor can be added, the choice of how many sensors to add is included as part of the sensor’s form rather than as a separate dialog box.
• When adding more than one sensor, a dialog box is available that allows you to input unique values for certain calibration and/or conversion factors (e.g., multiplier, offset, gage factor) for each sensor being measured.
• Each sensor form now includes a wiring tab that shows the wiring for the sensor. This tab allows you to manually change the wiring location, if desired.
• For some sensors that require an excitation voltage, the sensor form now includes parameters that allow you to calculate Sensors per Excitation Channel. (Exciting more than one sensor with an excitation channel is helpful when the sensors to be measured outnumber the available excitation channels.)
• An SC115 CS I/O-to-USB Flash Memory Drive check box has been added to the Outputs screen. When this box is selected, new data will be copied to an SC115 when it is plugged into the CS I/O port of the datalogger.
• Selected Sensors are now shown in a tree format and branches of the tree can be collapsed or expanded as desired. This can be especially useful when the Selected Sensor tree contains multiplexers.
• New Sensor files:
      27106T Wind Speed Sensor
      CS525 ISFET pH Probe
      CS650/655 Water Content Reflectometer
      CS506 Fuel Moisture Sensor
      NR-LITE2 Net Radiometer
      CNR4 Net Radiometer
      Quarter Bridge Strain Gage
      Half Bridge Strain Gage
      Full Bridge Strain Gage
      Geokon 4000/4050 Vibrating Wire Strain Gage
      Geokon 4100 Series Vibrating Wire Strain Gage
      Geokon 4420 Vibrating Wire Crackmeter

Short Cut for Windows version 2.8 includes two new sensor files:

• CS450/CS455 Pressure Transducer
• WindSonic4 (SDI12) Two-Dimensional Ultrasonic Wind Sensor

We do not offer an individual manual for SCWin. ShortCut information is provided in the LoggerNet, RTDAQ, and PC400 manuals. You can also obtain information from the Help screens within SCWin for assistance.

One of the biggest changes in Short Cut for Windows 2.7 is support for the ET107 Evapotranspiration Monitoring Station. Other changes include:

• New sensor files:
  
  • 03002 Wind Speed and Direction Sensor
  • 105E (chromel-constantan) Thermocouple

  • Vibrating Wire Sensor (for generic vibrating wire sensors and the AVW200)
  • WindSonic1 (RS-232) Two-Dimensional Ultrasonic Wind Sensor
  • HMP155 Temperature and Relative Humidity Sensor
  • SR50A Sonic Ranging Sensor (SDI-12 Output)

• Removed the Add Device button. Peripheral devices are now listed in and selected directly from the Available Sensors and Devices tree.

• Improved the readability of the wiring diagrams.

One of the biggest changes in Short Cut for Windows 2.6 is support for the CR900X Measurement and Control System. A selection of generic measurements and thermocouple sensors for the CR9000X are available for the first time in this release. Other changes include:

• New sensor files for the CMP3 Pyranometer, the IRR-P Precision Infrared Temperature Sensor, the JC Ultrasonic Depth Sensor, the CNR2 Net Radiometer, the CS106 Barometric Pressure Sensor, the OBS-3+ Turbidity Sensor, and a saturation vapor pressure calculation
• Advanced tab on the Finish screen for CRBasic datalogger, which allows you to view the CRBasic code and launch the CRBasic Editor
• Option to send the program to the datalogger from the Results tab on the Finish screen
• Ability to create custom sensors using existing sensor files as templates
• Ability to manually set advanced outputs to high or low resolution

1. User Interface: new, wizard-like user interface that makes the process of creating a datalogger program even easier than before.
2. Dataloggers: support for the CR3000 Micrologger.
3. Sensors:
   • Images to help you select the correct sensor for your program.
   • CSI sensor files for the CS15 Current Transformer and CS300 Apogee PYR-P Pyranometer.
4. Wiring Diagrams: supports two additional colors (brown and orange) as well as the the ground symbol.
5. User selectable print options (Results, Summary, Wiring Diagram, Wiring Text) added to the last step of creating your datalogger program.
6. Improved Advanced Outputs:
   • “Ring” and “Fill and Stop” table options now supported.
   •  Added the ability to “Store Filemark” when a flag is toggled by the user.
   •  Added the option to set a flag high when a table becomes full.
   •  Added a “Data Event” output option.

1. We have merged the sensors list for our European office into SCWin, eliminating the need for two versions. If you are using our terminal input modules (TIMs), the wiring diagram in SCWin now supports them. Data storage to PCMCIA or CompactFlash cards has been added for the CR1000 and CR5000 dataloggers.
2. Added support for alternative groups of sensor files, specifically to support sensor files developed for sensors specific to European users. The SCWin.EXE was modified to read new settings in the sensor files and display a menu item under the Settings menu to offer options for viewing Campbell Scientific Inc. or Campbell Scientific Ltd. sensor groups. 
3. Added support for interfaces requiring special wiring between the datalogger and sensors: LLAC4 (4-channel device for reading low level AC signals on digital control ports), SW12V (standalone switched 12V relay cable for HMP45C sensors), Terminal Input Modules for the AGS Level Sensor and CNR1 Net Radiometer, A547 Interface for the CS547A Conductivity and Temperature Probe, QD1 Interface for quadrature shaft encoders, SDM-AO4 4-Channel Analog Output Module, and SDM-CVO4 4-Channel Current/Voltage Output Module.
