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).

This patch will upgrade LoggerNet, LoggerNet Remote or LoggerNet Admin version 4.0 and newer to 4.9. 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 v5.0.1.
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.

There are several approaches you can try:
- The LNDB Interface can pull data from LoggerNet and insert it into a database instance. Supported database platforms are as follows: Microsoft SQL; MySQL; unofficially, MariaDB as it is open source MySQL, PostGRESQL, and Oracle. The database table structure and metadata will match the structure of the station’s program and the station name used in LoggerNet exactly. You cannot customize the structure. Refer to the setup documentation.
- Read or parse data from LoggerNet .dat files. The files are CSV formatted and can be parsed in using most any programming language. Files by default are stored on the LoggerNet computer in the following path: C:\Campbellsci\LoggerNet.
- LDMP Server, a LoggerNet Admin component, offers a listening socket for data to be pulled directly from the LoggerNet cache over the LoggerNet Service listening port 6789. Complete documentation in LoggerNet Admin is stored in the following path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Campbellsci\LoggerNet\ldmp_server2.pdf.
- Read in data using the CSI web server’s built in Web API. The webAPI accepts queries in the same format as the data logger’s built-in webAPI. Refer to the data logger webAPI documentation.
-
Yes. LoggerNet Admin allows for opening multiple instances of the Connect screen and connecting to multiple dataloggers, as long as there is no conflict between the communications devices.
-
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.
-
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.
-
- PC400 is simple software for the user who has only a few stations to manage, and who does not require complex communications links or scheduled data collection.
- LoggerNet provides support for more complicated networks and allows for data collection to occur on schedule.
- LoggerNet Admin contains additional tools which are useful for those managing large networks of dataloggers, or for those who need to run LoggerNet as a service.
For comparative descriptions, see the “Software Overview” brochure.

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.

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.
-
LoggerNet Remote is purchased separately. However, a purchased copy of LoggerNet and a purchased copy of LoggerNet Remote can be installed on the same machine, which makes the LoggerNet on that machine the LoggerNet Admin.
-
There is a free trial version of LoggerNet, but there is not one for LoggerNet Admin.
