RTMC Pro
Use Live Data
LoggerNet – When selected, RTMC Pro uses the data that has been collected
by LoggerNet and stored in LoggerNet’s data cache. Therefore, if LoggerNet is
running and data is being actively collected from the datalogger network, the
values displayed by the components will be updated as data is collected.
However, run-time events (audio, email, run/open, alarm acknowledgement,
switch state changing, value changing, value forwarder, etc.) will not be active.
When Use Live Data is not selected, RTMC Pro does not use the data stored in
LoggerNet’s data cache. Therefore, the values displayed by the components
will not be updated until RTMC-RT is launched.
RTDAQ – When selected, RTMC Pro performs a manual poll to update the
project data every second if RTDAQ is connected to the datalogger. Therefore,
if RTDAQ is connected to the datalogger, the values displayed by the
components will be updated every second. However, run-time events (audio,
email, run/open, alarm acknowledgement, switch state changing, value
changing, value forwarder, etc.) will not be active. When Use Live Data is not
selected, RTMC Pro does not perform manual polls to update project data.
Therefore, the values displayed by the components will not be updated until
RTMC-RT is launched.

Live Data is currently off or on. When Use Live Data is off, the icon will
