Section 10. Utilities Installed with LoggerNet

station’s version number. Variables that can have multiple instances are

represented as subscripted arrays. The size of these arrays will depend upon

the value read from the variable that is defined as the “dimensioning” variable.

If the value of this variable ever changes, the LoggerNet server will evaluate

whether the current table definitions should be changed. If the current table

definition already defines enough values to match the current value, no change

will take place. If, however, the dimensioning value is larger than the current

dimension, the current table will be deleted and a new table created in its place.

Refer to the online help to see the variables defined for each table.
