Rtmc – Campbell Scientific LoggerNet Datalogger Support Software User Manual
Page 26

Preface — What’s New in LoggerNet 4?
Variable Name Matching – When enabled variable names will be
capitalized based on how they are declared in the program, regardless of
how the user may have typed them.
Create .TDF File at Compile – The user can then associate a .TDF file
with a datalogger. This can be useful if communication is taking place
over a slow or unreliable communication link where the attempt to receive
table definitions back from the datalogger fails.
Clear Undo/Redo List on File Save – Clears the change tracking in the
program when the file is saved. Otherwise change tracking is kept until
the file is closed.
Syntax Highlighting for Variables and Local Variables – Variables and
Local Variables can now be given their own syntax highlighting to make
them easier to identify.
You can now drag and drop a file onto the CRBasic Editor workspace to open
the file. Also, multiple files can be selected from the File | Open dialog box.
All selected files will be opened.
Support has been added for custom voice files for the VoiceSpeak instruction.
When inserting a VoiceSpeak instruction, the user then has the option of
choosing words from the standard Voice.txt file or from a user-created custom
voice file.
The CRBasic Editor now has alternate language support, if a separate
LoggerNet language package has been installed.
RTMC
Many new functions have been added that may be used when building
expressions in RTMC. These include string functions, time functions, start
option functions, and function with state. The ability to declare aliases for data
values used in expressions has also been added. See Section 5.2.1.4,
Expressions, or the Expressions topic in RTMC’s online help for more
information.
RTMC has a new Layout Toolbar which gives quick access to the Align, Space
Evenly, Make Same Size, Center, and Order menu items from RTMC’s
Component menu.
Graphics Options have been added to the Edit | Preferences menu item that
allow you to choose the maximum number of frames per second, whether
animation is enabled, and whether high quality or high speed is more
important. From this menu item, you can also choose the visual theme for
RTMC. This determines the look and feel of the application (i.e. colors, button
appearance, etc.). These options are available in both RTMC Development and
RTMC Run-Time.
An Edit | Customize menu item has been added which allows you to customize
RTMC’s toolbars and menus. This menu item is available in both RTMC
Development and RTMC Run-Time.
Panning functionality has been added to charts in RTMC Run-Time.
