Using Input Location Data with the LoggerNet Data

Source

If your application uses a LoggerNet Data source and you are using Input
Location data from a non-CRBasic datalogger, you must ensure that all
locations you need to access are given labels:

If you address the values using the indexing scheme ($1, $2, … etc.), this does
not relate to the input location number, but to the position in the list of labeled
locations.

If this is not done, i.e. there are unlabelled input locations,
RTDM will not be able to access these values.

Using LoggerNet: Importance of Running the

Schedule

When using the LoggerNet Datasource, you must have a schedule set up and
running to ensure that data is being collected at the required interval to feed
data to RTDM. If you are using port and flags, make sure that the checkbox is
ticked on the schedule screen to collect Port and Flag data during normal
schedule data collection.

Where rapid updates of the input location data are required, the fastest
throughput may be obtained by holding open a connection to the datalogger
using the Connect screen. Care must be taken using this approach, though, on
connections where connection time has to be paid for, e.g. when using
telephone lines.
