Section 12. Optional Client Applications Available for LoggerNet
12.3 RTMC Run-Time
RTMC Run-Time is an application that allows you to remotely run real-time
graphic display screens that have been created in the RTMC Development
version. RTMC Run-Time is discussed in Section 5, Real-Time Tools, of this
manual.
12.4 RTMC Pro
RTMC Pro is an enhanced version of the RTMC Development application that
ships with LoggerNet and is talked about in Section 5.2, Real-Time Monitoring
and Control. RTMC Pro contains more graphical components than RTMC.
For example, more alarms (multi-state), alarm events (email, FTP, run/open),
switches (lever, rocker, rotary), charts (XY and scope), gauges (rotary,
compass), and layout components (group box, bevel, panel) are available. For
components that exist in both versions, more properties have been exposed in
RTMC Pro resulting in more design control. RTMC Pro also includes
run/open button, hotspot, snapshot, and alarm log capabilities.
RTMC Pro is not covered in this manual. RTMC Pro comes with a separate
user’s manual. Product literature can be downloaded from our website at
12.5 LNDB
LNDB is an application that enables you to easily move data from a LoggerNet
data cache into a database such as Microsoft SQL Server or MySQL. The two
main components of LNDB are LNDB Manager and LNDB Engine. LNDB
Manager is used to set up a database and select the datalogger data tables that
will be stored in the database. It also provides tools to monitor the LNDB
Engine and to review the database data. LNDB Engine runs as a service and
sends the selected data from the LoggerNet data cache to the database.
Additionally, LNDB includes utilities for importing and exporting data, and
generating simple reports from your database data.
LNDB is not covered in this manual. LNDB comes with a separate user’s
manual. Product literature can be downloaded from our website at
www.campbellsci.com.
12.6 Baler
Baler is a LoggerNet client application that allows you to set up a schedule on
which data will be retrieved from the LoggerNet server and saved to a file on a
remote computer. Tables are selected for baling from the dataloggers in the
LoggerNet network. The Baler will create a separate file for each selected
table. The data can be saved in TOAC1, TOA5, TOB, or CSV format.
The term “baling” is used in this application because of how files are saved to
disk. The user specifies an interval on which data will be stored, and once
“baling” is started, data is saved in interval-sized packets or “bales”.
Baler is not covered in this manual. Baler comes with a separate user’s
manual. Product literature can be downloaded from our website at
www.campbellsci.com.
