Preface — What’s New in LoggerNet 4?
Product History
LoggerNet 4 continues the original design of client-server functionality that
first appeared when Version 1.0 was released for Windows to replace Real
Time Monitoring Software (RTMS) that ran on OS/2 operating systems.
Versions in the 1.x series supported only table-based dataloggers and provided
large network users with sophisticated capabilities to develop clients to the
server to move data without having to store it in interim files.
Version 2.0 added support for dataloggers with mixed-array operating systems,
the CRBasic dataloggers, and additional communications devices. It also
supported client applications’ requests for data via TCP/IP, and automatically
created files on the PC for final storage data. Subsequent revisions in the 2.x
series added support for hardware as it was released and refined the client-
server architecture to make it more robust and flexible. Software development
kits and standalone clients were released to provide additional functionality.
One of the main efforts in the development of LoggerNet 3.1 was to
incorporate support for the CR1000 datalogger. This included datalogger
management (connect, collect data, set clock, send program, etc.) in
LoggerNet, as well as programming support in CRBasic and Short Cut. To
help with creating CR1000 programs, a Transformer utility was developed to
convert existing CR10X Edlog programs to CR1000 CRBasic programs.
LoggerNet 3.2 added support for our new CR3000 datalogger. In addition,
LoggerNet Admin and LoggerNet Remote were developed, which provide
tools to support larger networks. These tools include security and remote
management capabilities, and the ability to run LoggerNet as a service.
LoggerNet 3.3 added support for the CR800 datalogger. A new file output
option was also added for table-based dataloggers. This CSV file format
option allows the creation of data files similar to those from mixed array
dataloggers.
LoggerNet 3.4 improved LoggerNet’s performance on Windows Vista. In
addition, changes were made to the user interface of the Numeric Display and
Graphs.
Beginning with LoggerNet 3.4, Windows NT is no longer
supported.
NOTE
LoggerNet 4.0 introduces a new look and feel to the LoggerNet Toolbar.
Applications are divided into categories to make navigating the Toolbar easier.
You can also organize a Favorites category for the applications that you use
most often. A new file viewing application, View Pro, is introduced which
allows multiple data files to be opened, multiple graphs to be created, and
graphing in a variety of formats (Line Graph, X-Y Plot, Histogram, Rainflow
Histogram, and FFT). Another new application, the Network Planner, is
included. This is a graphical application that assists the user in designing
