Section 12. Optional Client
Applications Available for LoggerNet
Several client applications are available that are compatible with LoggerNet. Many of
these allow remote access to the data in the LoggerNet data cache, or provide a way to
post process that data.
Client applications include LoggerNetData, RTMC-RT, RTMC Pro, LNDB, Baler, OPC
Server, and the LoggerNet SDKs.
For the client applications that allow remote access to the LoggerNet data cache,
LoggerNet must be configured to allow connection from remote clients.
12.1 Allowing Remote Connections to the LoggerNet
Server
LoggerNet is a 32-bit client/server application, and therefore, the server can run
on one computer while a client application can be run on a separate computer
attached to the same network. Campbell Scientific offers client applications
for LoggerNet that take advantage of this remote access capability. If Allow
Remote Connections is enabled, you can run LoggerNet on one computer, and
use a remote client application to display data remotely on a different computer
or save a copy of the data on the remote computer. If remote connections are
denied, data access from a remote computer is not possible.
Remote Connections is enabled from the LoggerNet Toolbar’s Tools | Options
menu item. Select the Allow Remote Connections check box to allow remote
connections. Conversely, when the check box is not selected, Remote
Connections will be denied. After the change is made, LoggerNet must be
restarted for the change to take affect.
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,
Utilities Installed with LoggerNet ). 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 a remote client application.
12.2 LoggerNetData
LoggerNetData is a suite of LoggerNet Client applications. The applications
include RTMC Development, RTMC Run-Time, Split, View Pro, and Data
Filer.
All of these applications are discussed elsewhere in this manual.
