Baler 

Though this may be a desirable feature, enabling Allow Remote Connections 
also makes your LoggerNet network configuration vulnerable to changes by 
other parties on the network.  LoggerNet comes with a command line utility 
called CoraScript (Section 10.2 of the LoggerNet manual).  This utility can be 
used to create a back-up script of your network and troubleshoot problems.  
However, it is possible that another user could use CoraScript to make 
unwanted changes to the datalogger network, including changing the data 
collection schedule or deleting devices entirely.  We, therefore, recommend 
that this feature be disabled, unless it is essential that the data be made 
available to a remote computer running the Baler or other remote LoggerNet 
client. 

This option can be enabled/disabled from the LoggerNet Tools menu.  
LoggerNet must be restarted for the change to be effective. 

2.  Baler Settings 

The first step in setting up the Baler is to select the tables that will be saved to 
file. Each datalogger in the network will be listed in the Stations list. When a 
datalogger is selected with the mouse pointer, all of its tables will be listed in 
the Tables From list. To select the tables that will be saved to file, highlight 
them with a click of the mouse pointer and use the arrow buttons to move them 
into the Selected Tables field.
