Preface — What’s New in LoggerNet 4?
PakBus datalogger networks. It allows the development of a model of the
PakBus network, proposes and verifies valid connections between devices, and
allows integration of the model directly into LoggerNet 4.0.
See below for more details on what is new in LoggerNet 4.0 and each
individual application.
One of the main efforts in the development of LoggerNet 4.1 was the ability to
use LNDB databases with View Pro. The ability to lock the timestamp column
on the left of the data file has also been added to View Pro. This keeps the
timestamp visible as you scroll through columns of data. The Device
Configuration Utility adds an off-line mode which allows you to look at the
settings for a certain device type without actually being connected to a device.
The CRBasic Editor now has the capability to open a read-only copy of any
file. This gives you the ability to open multiple copies of a program and
examine multiple areas of a very large program at the same time. You can also
now continue an instruction onto multiple lines by placing the line continuation
indicator (a single space followed by an underscore “_”) at the end of the each
line that is to be continued. Also, bookmarks in a CRBasic program are now
persistent from session to session. In the Troubleshooter and the Setup Screen
(Standard View), you can now click on a potential problem to bring up a menu
that allows you to go the Setup Screen or Status Monitor to fix the potential
problem, bring up help describing the problem, or in some cases fix the
problem directly. Campbell Scientific’s new wireless sensors have been added
to the Network Planner. An option to provide feedback on LoggerNet is now
available from the LoggerNet Toolbar’s Help menu.
Beginning with LoggerNet 4.1, Windows 2000 is no longer
supported. NOTE
LoggerNet 4.2 adds support for IPv6 addresses. IPv6 addresses are written as
eight two-byte address blocks separated by colons and surrounded by brackets
(e.g., [2620:24:8080:8600:85a1:fcf2:2172:11bf]). Prior to LoggerNet 4.2, only
IPv4 addresses were supported. IPv4 addresses are written in dotted decimal
notation (e.g., 192.168.11.197). Leading zeroes are stripped for both IPv4 and
IPv6 addresses. Note that while LoggerNet now supports IPv6 addresses and
they can be used to specify servers, CR1000/CR3000/CR800 series dataloggers
will not support IPv6 until a future OS release. Check the OS revision history
on our website to determine when IPv6 support is added to the OS.
LoggerNet now supports display and input of Unicode characters/strings in
many areas of the product. Unicode is a universal system for encoding
characters. It allows LoggerNet to display characters in the same way across
multiple languages and countries. See Unicode in the LoggerNet help file index
for more information on Unicode and what applications support Unicode
characters. To support Unicode, an Insert Symbol dialog box has been added to
the CRBasic Editor. This allows you to insert Unicode symbols into your
CRBasic program for use in Strings and Units declarations.
The ability to set up subnets of the network map has been added to LoggerNet
Admin. The Setup Screen’s View | Configure Subnets menu item is used to
configure the subnets. Within each subnet, you can also specify groups of
dataloggers. The datalogger groups create folders than can be collapsed or
expanded when viewing the subnet. Once subnets have been configured, you
xvi
