Contains advanced programming and communication capabilities
Overview
Current Version: 4.5
LoggerNet is our main datalogger support software package. It supports programming, communication, and data retrieval between dataloggers and a PC.
LoggerNet consists of a server application and several client applications integrated into a single product. It can support connection to a single datalogger, but it is especially adept in applications that require telecommunications or scheduled data retrieval used in large datalogger networks.
Version 4 is our most recent major upgrade to LoggerNet that features a new tool for designing and configuring PakBus® networks, a more powerful file viewer, an upgrade to RTMC, a redesigned toolbar, and many updates to existing clients. Learn more about the upgrade in the brochure and manual linked in the Related Documents section on this page.
Version 4.4 adds support for the CR300-series dataloggers.
A copy of the current software license agreement (end-user license agreement) for LoggerNet is available in the LoggerNet Instruction Manual.

Detailed Description
The standard LoggerNet software package is recommended for those who have datalogger networks that do not require the more advanced features offered in LoggerNet Admin. It includes the LoggerNet server and client applications. The LoggerNet server stores the data in a cache and writes data to a variety of formats, including ASCII, binary, and XML.
The LoggerNet server and client applications enable you to do the following:
- Configure the server to communicate with multiple dataloggers via a variety of communications hardware
- Create custom datalogger programs using Short Cut, Edlog, or the CRBasic Editor
- Connect to a datalogger to check or set the clock, send programs, or perform other administrative functions
- Collect data on demand or schedule
- Monitor and troubleshoot the network
- Display real-time data in a numeric display or graph
- View and graph data files
- Create graphical data displays that update when data is collected and allow you to control flags, ports, and variables
- Create automated tasks
- Process data files using Split
- Save data in formats (including CSV and XML) that can be imported into third-party analysis packages.

-
First, make sure the most recent version of LoggerNet is being used. (Improvements were made between versions 4.0 and 4.1 that resolved some issues with LoggerNet and some USB-to-serial cable drivers.) Next, ensure that the most recent drivers from the cable manufacturer are being used. Often, newer drivers are developed for devices after they are released, and the software shipped with those devices is not updated. The drivers can be downloaded from the manufacturer's website.
-
Yes, provided the serial sensor is connected to a port that is separate from the one used to connect to LoggerNet.
-
LoggerNet and VisualWeather are the only datalogger support software packages, offered by Campbell Scientific, that perform scheduled data collection.
-
Because the directory in which the executable files are installed is C:\Program Files\CampbellSci\LoggerNet, many operating system configurations require the user account under which the software is installed to have administrative privileges on the computer. However, after the software is installed, administrative privileges are not required by the user to run the software.
-
If LoggerNet will be initiating all connections (all outbound), there should not be a need to open firewall ports. If there will be call-backs from the modems, by default, the port that LoggerNet listens on is 6789. This, however, can be changed with the IPPort command line parameter.
-
If only scheduled collection is running, LoggerNet will connect to the data logger, collect the data, and then disconnect automatically.
-
LoggerNet version 3.3 and newer supports the CR10X, the CR800, and the CR850.
-
LoggerNet does not do a clock check unless there is another reason to contact the data logger, such as for scheduled collection.
-
Yes, but only if the communications links to the data loggers allow simultaneous communication. For example, two mixed-array data loggers can be contacted simultaneously using two different COM ports; however, if they are accessed via the same COM port, LoggerNet can connect to only one at a time.
-
Yes. Follow these steps:
- In the LoggerNet Setup screen, click the icon for the data logger.
- Choose the Data Files tab.
- Deselect the Use Default File Name checkbox.
- In the menu for the File Output Option field, choose Create Unique File Name.
