APPENDIX E. LOGGERNET QUICK START GUIDE

E.1 Overview
Campbell Scientific's LoggerNet Software is used to communicate with the Datalogger, program
user specific settings and collect Data stored in the Datalogger memory. LoggerNet is designed
to be used with Geokon Micro-1000 and Micro-800 Dataloggers reading Vibrating Wire and
MEMS tilt sensors. Other configurations and sensor outputs are available upon request. Geokon
provides the user with a generic Start Program to simplify acquiring Data without the need to be
proficient in Campbell Scientific CRBasic programming code. The Start Program(s) will be
preconfigured with a default Scan Interval and will store Raw Units by default. Each Start
Program will have two associated files on the factory supplied USB flash drive. The first is the
Main CRBasic program (.CR1/.CR8) and includes all programming code required to read and
store Data according to the Datalogger configuration. The Main CRBasic program does not
require modification by the user in most cases. The second file is the Include (.DLD) text file and
is used by the Main program to import user specific parameters. The Include File allows program
parameters such as the Scan Interval, Zero Readings, Linear Gage Factors, Data File Header
Labels and Temperature Correction factors to be modified by the user.
E.2 Getting Started
E.2.1 Program Files
After installing LoggerNet, the CRBasic program files are located on the Geokon USB
Thumb Drive. The file types are ".DLD" and ".CR1"/".CR8.", these files should first be
copied to the end users computer in C:\Campbellsci\CRBasicEditor.
E.2.2 Connection Setup
The Launch Menu provides a drop-down list of all the categories on the LoggerNet
toolbar. Hovering over a category will display a list of applications related to that
category.
With the Launch Menu open, hover over "Main" and press "Setup" from the resulting list
of applications.
