Section 4. Setting up Datalogger Networks

Help Window – The HTML window in the upper right corner of the dialog

shows context sensitive help about the control that has the current keyboard

focus.

Generated Devices and Settings – The HTML window in the lower right

corner of the dialog shows a summary of the devices that will be created in

LoggerNet’s network map as well as the settings associated with those devices.

This summary is presented in an indented list form where the level of

indentation depends upon device links. Since the dialog has not yet

communicated with the server, this summary shows only the expected structure

and does not reflect any devices in the actual network map.

If you click on the

Connect button in the Configure LoggerNet dialog, the

Network Planner will attempt to connect to the specified server address and

will log in using the specified user name and password. Once attached, the

dialog will attempt to reconcile the structure and settings that it has generated

with the structure and settings currently in LoggerNet’s network map. The

result of this reconciliation is a set of changes that will be made to the current

LoggerNet network map. An example of this set of changes is shown below.
