Detailed Description

LoggerNet Admin, a more advanced software package than the standard LoggerNet, has tools that are useful for those with large data logger networks. It provides all the functionality of LoggerNet including the ability to program the data logger, collect data, monitor and troubleshoot the network, manage the data loggers in your network, create graphical data displays that update when data is collected, create automated tasks, and view or post-process the data. (See LoggerNet.) 

LoggerNet Admin also provides the ability to enable security, manage the server from a remote PC, run LoggerNet as a Windows service, export data to third-party applications, and launch multiple instances of the same client (for instance, opening two Connect windows to communicate simultaneously with two different data loggers in the same or a different network). In addition, you can use LoggerNet Admin to set up subnets of the network map.

Downloads

LoggerNet Patch v.4.8.1 (399 MB) 16-04-2024

This patch will upgrade LoggerNet, LoggerNet Remote or LoggerNet Admin version 4.0 and newer to 4.8.1. A version of LoggerNet 4.x must be installed on the computer. 

Note: This patch includes RTMC Run-time and the RTMC Standard Development v5.0.1. If you are using RTMC Pro 4.3.3 or older or CSI Web Server 1.6 or older and plan to continue creating RTMC projects, we recommend that you opt out on updating RTMC during the install or upgrade to RTMC Pro 5.0.

LoggerNet Admin and Remote:

A change was made in the way the LoggerNet 4.6 Server performs "Custom Data Collection". A corresponding change was made in the Connect Screen 4.6 client "Custom Data Collection" functionality.

If you require "Custom Data Collection" functionality with the Connect Screen client, assure that the LoggerNet Servers and Connect Screen clients are 4.6 or higher.

This application requires the Microsoft .Net 4.6.2 Framework.  If it is not already installed on your computer,  it can be obtained from the Microsoft Download Center.

Supported Operating Systems: (32 and 64 bit) Windows 11 or 10.

  1. Yes. The patch should update the install to version 4.1 Admin, as long as the previous installation was installed as Admin with the correct license key.

  2. When LoggerNet Admin is set up, the user is asked to enter a user name. The user can enter something that is recognizable by a corporate network.

  3. LoggerNet doesn’t know which tables are available in mixed-array data loggers unless the program is identified by associating it. If no tables show up in the Data Filer table selection window, check that there is a program associated with the data logger in LoggerNet. This can be done on the Program tab of the LoggerNet Setup screen. Also, verify these two things:

    1. Scheduled collection is enabled (on the Schedule tab of the LoggerNet Setup screen).
    2. FS Area 1 is enabled (and FS Area2 if memory is being specifically allocated to it) for collection. This information is found on the respective tabs in the LoggerNet Setup Screen.
  4. Deselect Run as Service from Start Menu | Programs | Campbell Scientific | LoggerNet | LoggerNet Service Manager.

  5. The LoggerNet revision history information can be found through the “Software and OS Revision Histories” web page. Revision history information is available for LoggerNet patches and upgrades, as well as for the trial versions of the software.

  6. All data and settings should remain following the upgrade from LoggerNet to LoggerNet Admin. The file formats and locations are exactly the same between the two products. No information in the configuration should be lost or reset.

  7. LoggerNet Admin contains all of the capabilities of LoggerNet Remote. Additional copies of LoggerNet Remote are purchased separately. Because using different versions of LoggerNet and LoggerNet Remote can result in issues, Campbell Scientific recommends purchasing the LoggerNet Admin Upgrade.

  8. Yes. LoggerNet Admin allows for opening multiple instances of the Connect screen and connecting to multiple data loggers, as long as there is no conflict between the communications devices.

  9. Yes, unless a Windows task is set up to launch LoggerNet. This task method, however, is not supported by Campbell Scientific.

  10. To upgrade from LoggerNet to LoggerNet Admin, the correct upgrade path is to order the LoggerNet Admin Upgrade (LOGGERNETADM/U), which allows one copy of LoggerNet or LoggerNet Admin to be upgraded to the current version of LoggerNet Admin.
