The
Stations
list shows all CRVW3 devices that have been defined on your
network map. Click on a station and press Connect in the upper left corner to
establish a communications session to the station. If the radio link is healthy
and LoggerNet is configured correctly, you will see a successful connection to
the device and the button’s icon will change to show a connected state (the
green and orange connector plugs will show as connected to each other). If
errors occur, troubleshooting is needed. Data can be monitored from the
station, once connected, using the Table Monitor . Select the Public table or
VW_Data table from the Table Monitor dropdown and press Start to show
current data from the station. The Connect Screen will continually poll for new
data and display it.
Use the Station Status button to display the Status Summary, Table Fill
information, and the complete
Status
table of the device.
Use the Collect Now button to confirm that data can be collected from each
CRVW3 station.
Use the Connect Screen to validate that the CRVW3 station is fully functional
and fully communicating. Once each station has been validated, see Section
10.7.4 , Setting up Automatic Data Collection
(p. 87)
.
You can use the PakBusGraph application to troubleshoot your network. This
is launched from the Tools category of the
LoggerNet
toolbar. You can also
use
LogTool
to monitor how communication links are working. For more
information, see Section 13 , Troubleshooting CRVW3 Networks
(p. 101)
, or refer
to the LoggerNet manual.

By default, PakBus beaconing is set to occur at an interval of 1
minute on the PakBusPort configured in the Setup Screen .
CRVW3 devices are not set up to use beaconing by default, since
it makes more sense for LoggerNet to do that through the
PakBusPort. When troubleshooting your network, consider using
a more frequent beaconing interval. However, once the network is
operating properly, the Beacon Interval setting should be set back
to 1 minute or some other slower interval to avoid unnecessary
radio traffic. It may be necessary in some circumstances to set the
beacon interval on a CRVW3 repeater station.
10.7.4 Setting up Automatic Data Collection
With a good connection working to every CRVW3, you can now set up
automatic data collection (also called scheduled data collection) in LoggerNet
for each station/device. To do this, use the
Setup Screen
(see Section 10.7.2 ,
Configuring the Network Map of LoggerNet
(p. 80)
). You will use the
Schedule
and Data Files tabs for each CRVW3 device that is already defined on your
network map. Remember to press Apply after making changes.
When
LoggerNet
is running and scheduled collection is enabled, it will
automatically connect to a specified station at a designated time and collect
data from it. This occurs “behind the scenes” without any prompting from the
LoggerNet user.
