Campbell Scientific LoggerNet Datalogger Support Software - Manual (Page 101)

Section 4. Setting up Datalogger Networks
If you are using LoggerNet Admin or LoggerNet Remote 4.0 and
using the Connect Screen to connect to a remote server that is
running an older version of LoggerNet, the behavior will be
different than described above. When connecting to a LoggerNet
3.4.1 server, you will be disconnected with no advanced warning
when Max Time On-Line is reached. A message will be displayed
indicating that Max Time On-Line has been reached. When
connecting to servers older than LoggerNet 3.4.1, the behavior
will be variable. Generally, you will be disconnected at some
point, but the timing of the disconnect will not be predictable.
Beacon Interval – The time interval on which the PakBus node should
transmit its routing table information in the PakBus network.
PakBus Verify Interval – The amount of time, in seconds, that will be used as
the link verification interval in the PakBus hello transaction messages. If no
communication has taken place during the specified interval, LoggerNet will
initiate a hello exchange with the datalogger. A verify interval of zero causes
LoggerNet to use a default verify interval of 2.5 times the beacon interval. If
the beacon interval is also zero, the default verify interval is 5 minutes.
The format for this field is 00 h(ours) 00 m(inutes) 00 s(econds).

Extra Response Time – The amount of additional time, in seconds, that
LoggerNet should wait for this device to respond. Note that Extra Response
Time is cumulative for all devices in the network.
PakBus Address – This field is for display only. It shows the PakBus address
that has been set up for the PakBus TcpServer. This address can be changed by
going to the Setup Screen’s Options | LoggerNet PakBus Settings menu item.
Delay Hangup – The amount of time, in seconds and milliseconds, that
LoggerNet should delay before hanging up the link to the device. If a new
command to the device is issued before the delay has expired, communication
will not be terminated.
IP Port Used for Call-Back – Enter the port number that LoggerNet should
open and monitor for incoming call-back messages. If a value of zero is
entered, LoggerNet will make an outbound TCP connection and then listen on
that connection until validated data is received.
TCP Password – This is a password that is used to control IP access to a
datalogger. Passwords are assigned through the Device Configuration Utility or
through the datalogger’s settings which can be edited through PakBus Graph or
the Device Configuration Utility.
