Technical Description

LoggerNet Admin, a more advanced software package than the standard LoggerNet, has tools that are useful for those with large datalogger networks. It provides all the functionality of LoggerNet including the ability to program the datalogger, collect data, monitor and troubleshoot the network, manage the dataloggers 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 dataloggers in the same or a different network).

Number of FAQs related to LoggerNet Admin: 22

Expand AllCollapse All

  1. Will a patch for LoggerNet 4.0 apply to LoggerNet Admin 4.0 as well?

    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. Does LoggerNet Admin have a user name? If so, is there a way to change it to something that will be recognized by a corporate network?

    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. Why don’t mixed-array data logger tables show up in the Data Filer table selection window?

    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. Does upgrading a LoggerNet installation to a LoggerNet Admin installation remove scheduled data collection rules, the stations, or any other settings?

    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.

  5. Is LoggerNet Admin needed to automatically start up LoggerNet on a virtual server?

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

  6. Can LoggerNet be configured to run as a service without purchasing LoggerNet Admin?

    No. Only LoggerNet Admin has the capability of running LoggerNet as a service.

  7. Can the server and client portions of LoggerNet Admin for Windows be run on separate machines?

    No. LoggerNet Admin is installed on a single computer. To run clients or remote portions on another PC, it is necessary to purchase an additional LoggerNet Admin or LoggerNet Remote license.

  8. Does the LoggerNet Admin licensed version include LoggerNet Remote, or is it a separate purchase?

    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.

  9. To run LoggerNet as a server and control two data logger networks from remote PCs, is LoggerNet Admin needed, as well as LoggerNet Remote for each remote PC?

    Yes. To install LoggerNet on a centralized server and run it as a service, LoggerNet Admin needs to be installed on the server. Assuming there are open communications paths, LoggerNet Admin can be set up to control/access two or more data logger networks. However, if users would like to control two networks on separate PCs, a copy of LoggerNet Remote is needed for each PC accessing LoggerNet Admin on the servers.

  10. How can LoggerNet be upgraded to LoggerNet Admin in the most seamless way possible?

    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.
