Preface — What’s New in LoggerNet 4?

A Constant Customization feature has been added to the CRBasic Editor. This

allows you to define values for one or more constants in a program prior to

performing a conditional compile. The constants can be set up with an edit box,

a spin box field for selecting/entering a value, or with a list box. A step

increase/decrease can be defined for the spin box, as well as maximum and

minimum values.

The CRBasic Editor now allows you to Save and Open Display Settings.

Display settings affect the look and feel of the CRBasic Editor. This includes

font and background, as well as syntax highlighting.

View Pro has a new View Record option in the right-click menu that can be

used to view an entire record in a new window.

LoggerNet Products

Campbell Scientific offers four LoggerNet software packages, LoggerNet,

LoggerNetData, LoggerNet Admin, and LoggerNet Remote and several

standalone client products. Each of these packages is purchased separately.

LoggerNet is the main software application and comes with all of the

applications needed to set up and configure a network of dataloggers including

tools to write programs and monitor retrieved data. LoggerNetData is a

complementary product that includes applications that can be used on a remote

computer to monitor data, or retrieve, view, and analyze data that was collected

by LoggerNet into a file. LoggerNet Admin and LoggerNet Remote enhance

the capabilities of LoggerNet by providing management tools for more

complex networks. The difference in the two is that LoggerNet Admin offers a

complete LoggerNet package, while LoggerNet Remote, which was designed

to be run remotely, does not include the LoggerNet server.

New and Improved Applications

Several new applications, as well as improvements to previously available

applications, are included with the release of LoggerNet 4.0.

Toolbar

The LoggerNet 4.0 Toolbar has a completely new look and feel. 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.

Then, if you prefer a smaller version of the toolbar, you can select Favorites

View from the View menu. This will switch to a small view of the toolbar

containing only icons for applications in the Favorites category.

Additional options are available including the ability to show a LoggerNet

system tray icon (either whenever LoggerNet is running or only when

LoggerNet is minimized), the option of hiding the LoggerNet taskbar button

when LoggerNet is minimized and the system tray icon is showing, the option

of whether or not to minimize clients when the Toolbar is minimized, and the

ability to hide or show the main menu.
