In the example above, Task_1 will be run after any scheduled call with the
CR1000 station. Task_2 is a scheduled task, run on a 1 hour interval. The next
time the task will run is 05:00 p.m. on April 5, 2013. Task_3 is a calendar task.
The next time the task will run is 05:00 p.m. on April 5, 2013. Task_4 will be
run after a file is retrieved from the CR3000 station.
To temporarily stop all tasks from running, select the Pause All Tasks
checkbox. This will stop all tasks until the check box is cleared.
A task can be triggered to run even if its trigger condition has not occurred.
Highlight a task from the list, and select the Run Selected Task button. This
is a good way to ensure that your task will run correctly before enabling the
Task Master.
9.1.3 Remote Administration of the Task Master
In LoggerNet Admin and LoggerNet Remote, the File | Select Server option
allows you to select the LoggerNet server to which the Task master should
connect. You also specify the username and password to be used.
For remote administration of the Task Master, the following conditions must be
met:
• LoggerNet security must be enabled in the Security Manager, and the
user must have Full Administrator credentials.
• Allow Remote Task Management must be enabled from the Security
Manager’s Edit menu.
• Allow Remote Connections must be enabled from LoggerNet’s Tools |
Options menu item.
9.1.4 Task Master Logs
Messages about the activity of tasks are saved in LoggerNet’s transaction log
files. They show information about when a task is set up and when a task is
executed. The Task messages are interspersed with other server messages in
the Trans.log files.
