About Datalogger Support Software
Our datalogger support software packages support datalogger programming, communications between datalogger and PC, and to varied extents, real-time and historical data monitoring. They allow a customer to support a single station or an entire datalogger network.
PC200W and ShortCut are designed to get you "up and running" quickly. These are easy-to-use software products intended for first time users or applications that don't require sophisticated communications or datalogger program editing.
PC400 software supports datalogger programming and telecommunications of a single device. If networks of dataloggers are required, we recommend using our LoggerNet client-server software. LoggerNet supports unattended telecommunications with each datalogger in the network as well as the ability for many users to simultaneously access data from the datalogger network.
RTDAQ is designed for high-speed data retrieval, and complements our CR5000, and CR9000X dataloggers. If telemetry is required for CR5000, CR9000, or CR9000X applications, LoggerNet is required.

PakCom no longer ships with every CR200 datalogger. For programming, download the latest version of Short Cut from our downloads page. If you need more programming power, consider purchasing either PC400 or LoggerNet.

An administrative account is necessary to install LoggerNet on Windows XP. The installation process creates directories in C:Program Files and creates keys in the Registry. A normal "user" account can run LoggerNet on Windows XP if the following rights are allowed for that user account:
1. Allow full access to files in the directory where LoggerNet is installed. By default, this directory is:
c:program filescampbellsciloggernet
2. Allow full access to files in the working directory for LoggerNet. By default, this directory is:
c:campbellsciloggernet
3. Allow full access to several files that will be created and updated in the Windows directory:
csl_cs32.ini
sms.ini
splitw.ini
view.ini
4. Allow full access to the registry key:
