4.5.4.4.1 Selecting the PakBus Network to View

When PakBus Graph is opened, it is set to view the first PakBus network on
the computer on which the datalogger support software is running. If more
than one PakBus network is set up on the computer, the different networks can
be viewed individually by selecting a port name from the PakBus Network
drop-down list. If the PakBus ports set up in the software have been bridged,
the resulting single port will be named “__global__”.

PakBus Graph also can be opened independently from the software toolbar, by
double-clicking the PakBusGraph.exe in the PakBusGraph directory (e.g.,
C:\Program Files\CampbellSci\PakBusGraph). If opened independently, the
host computer to which PakBus graph should connect can be selected from
File | Select Server on the PakBus Graph menu.

The Select Server option has the following settings:

Server Address – The name of the computer with which to connect. This
must be the valid name of an existing computer or a TCP/IP address (in the
form ###.###.###.### consisting of the IP network number, ###.###.###, and
the host number, ###).

Username – Your user name on the software server.

Password – Your password for the software server.

The Username and Password fields are required only if your server
administrator has set up security on your system.
