Campbell LoggerNet, Instruction Manual

Preface — What’s New in LoggerNet 4?
Miscellaneous other changes have been made to the settings for specific
components.
View Pro
View Pro is included for the first time in LoggerNet 4.0. It maintains the ease
of use of our former data file viewer with greatly enhanced capabilities.
Large files can be loaded more quickly. Scrolling is more responsive for large
files.
View Pro allows you to have multiple data files opened at one time. Multiple
graphs can be created from the same file or from multiple files. There is no
limit to the number of traces per graph. Data can be graphed in a variety of
formats including a Line Graph, X-Y Plot, Histogram, Rainflow Histogram, or
FFT (2D or 3D).
You have the ability to create a Line Graph containing multiple strip charts.
This allows you to simultaneously display data from multiple files (one strip
chart per file) to compare data from multiple stations. The X-axes (timestamps)
of the strip charts can be synchronized to facilitate cross file comparisons.
A Line Graph can use record numbers rather than timestamps on the X-Axis.
This allows you to display data files containing gaps in the timestamps.
From the toolbar of a Line Graph, you can bring up a Statistics box which
shows the average, standard deviation, minimum, and maximum of the
displayed points. From the toolbar you can also add a graph cursor to a Line
Graph. The cursor can be scrolled across the graph and the data values and
timestamp at the current cursor position will be shown.
View Pro has zoom capability to allow you to zoom in on a certain area of a
graph. You can also scroll a graph either from the graph itself or from the
opened data file.
You can print a graph either from a preview screen or directly from the graph
toolbar. The graph can also be saved in a variety of formats (BMP, JPEG,
WMF, EMF, or PCX).
Binary files (TOB1, TOB2, TOB3) can be opened directly in View Pro.
Split
A Time Offset option has been added. This allows the user to specify a time
offset that will be applied to each item on the Select line that uses the Date or
Edate function to output a date. This may be useful when adjusting for different
time zones.
Split now maintains a log file, splitr.log, each time Splitr is run. The main
purpose of this log file is to enable users running Splitr in command line mode
to identify what happened with each execution of Splitr. If a second instance of
Splitr is started when one is already running, another log file, splitrunning.log,
will be written. This file simply identifies the time that the second instance of
Splitr was started and that Splitr was already running.
