4.2.7 Sending a Program to the Datalogger from Setup
In most instances, you will send a new program to the datalogger from the
Connect Screen. Once the program is sent from Connect, you can launch a
Numeric Display from that window to view measurements and ensure the
program is working correctly. However, for convenience when configuring a
datalogger for communication and data collection, a program can also be sent
from the Setup Screen.
Select the Program tab for the highlighted datalogger. If a program exists in
the datalogger that LoggerNet has knowledge of, it will be displayed in the
Current Program fields. To send a new program, press the Send button.
For mixed-array dataloggers, if the datalogger currently has a program running
in it but LoggerNet is not aware of that program, you can Associate a program
with the datalogger. When a program is associated with a datalogger, input
location labels and final storage values will be available for viewing on
LoggerNet’s Numeric and Graphical Displays.
CR1000, CR3000, and CR800 Series dataloggers also have an Associate
button. This may be used to associate a TDF file with a datalogger. TDF
stands for Table Definitions File. When a program is compiled for a CR1000,
CR3000, or CR800 Series datalogger a program_name.TDF file is created
along with the original program file. This file contains the table definitions
(table size, variable names, data types, etc.) for that program. Associating the
TDF file with a datalogger can be useful if communication is taking place over
a slow or unreliable communications link where the attempt to receive table
definitions back from the datalogger fails.

4.2.8.1.1 LoggerNet Settings
LoggerNet Clock Settings
LoggerNet allows you to select the time option that will be used for the
LoggerNet server. There are three options:
Use local time without correction for daylight saving time – The
LoggerNet server will use the clock from the computer on which
LoggerNet is running. When the time changes to daylight saving time, the
server’s time is not affected.
Use local time with correction for daylight saving time – The
LoggerNet server will use the clock from the computer on which
LoggerNet is running. When the time changes to daylight saving time, the
server’s time will be adjusted.
Use Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) – The LoggerNet server will use
Greenwich Mean Time, regardless of whether daylight saving time is
applicable.
