Overview

Current Version: 5.0

RTMC Pro is used to create and run graphical screens that provide real-time monitor and control capabilities. You can easily design displays using its large library of components including alarms, switches, status bars, charts, and gauges. Simply select a component, place it on the workspace, and specify the data value to be displayed. Each component has properties that can be set by the user giving maximum design control.

This separately purchased product is an enhanced version of the RTMC client that is included with LoggerNet, LoggerNetAdmin, and RTDAQ.

Detailed Description

RTMC Pro, an enhanced version of RTMC, includes a development and a run-time program. Specifically, RTMC Pro provides the following:

  • The ability to use LNDB databases, Campbell Scientific data files, HTTP data loggers, virtual data sources, and multiple LoggerNet Servers as data sources
  • The CSI Web Server for viewing your data from a web browser
  • The ability to generate reports
  • More graphical components. For example, more alarms, switches, graphs, gauges, and layout components are available
  • Components to run/open a file, run a Cora-Script command (LoggerNet command), or view a web page.
  • Images of the project that can be saved and transferred to a web server automatically
  • The ability to send email messages or execute programs when alarms occur. Alarm activity can be logged to a file
  • More settings for components existing in both RTMC and RTMC Pro, which enables more design control

RTMC Run-Time and the CSI Web Server can run projects created with RTMC Pro's development program. However, RTMC Pro 2.x development tool is not compatible with the RTMC Run-Time and the standard RTMC development tool in LoggerNet 4.x or higher. An upgrade for RTMC Pro must be purchased separately if you have these earlier versions of RTMC Pro.

Expand AllCollapse All

  1. Is there a way to alter the text displayed when the network status tab is shown in RTMC Pro?

    This information cannot be changed.

  2. How can a full-screen view be achieved in RTMC Pro?

    In RTMC Pro, there is a workspace option to auto-size in runtime. This fills up the window and sizes the content as needed. This option is very useful when developing projects to be run on more than one display.

  3. Is there any way to plot data from left to right in RTMC Pro?

    RTMC Pro has an Invert Axis property for all axes on a chart. By inverting the bottom axis, the most recent data, along with its time stamp, is displayed on the left with the oldest on the right.

  4. Is there a way in RTMC Pro to designate when the graph should begin using data to calculate and display an average?

    Yes. Use the StartRelativeToNewest function as a prefix to the averaging expression to specify how far back to go in the data when the project is first started.

  5. Is it possible to rotate shapes in RTMC Pro?

    Shape rotation does not currently work in RTMC Pro. There is a work around, however. Save the shape as an image from the shape property page using the disc icon at the bottom right of the screen. Then load the saved image into an image component that has rotation capabilities.

  6. Is there any way to set the defaults in the email setup pop-up window for alarm components in RTMC Pro? Or is it necessary to enter this information for each alarm?

    Currently, copying and pasting alarms is the best solution.

  7. Can RTMC Pro be used with an XY plot to display two values against each other on the X and Y axes?

    Yes.

  8. Can RTMC Pro be used to dynamically display data from different time ranges?

    Yes.

  9. Using the Report Range component in RTMC Pro, how can data be selected for a report range?

    The report range is selected by using the forward and back arrows.

  10. In RTMC Run-Time, if a graph is pointed to a public variable, will it retrieve a public value every time LoggerNet connects to the data loggers?

    RTMC is a client to the LoggerNet server. This means that it does not directly interact with the data loggers. Rather, RTMC gets data from the LoggerNet data cache or from collected data files (for example, *.dat). If the RTMC project is pointed to a variable in the Public table, Scheduled Data Collection must be enabled for the Public table in LoggerNet. The timing of Scheduled Data Collection dictates the frequency at which new data are available for RTMC to display.
