BreezeNET DS.11b User’s Guide
Manual Version 1.0
supports continuous data logging, which the Site Monitor window does not
support.
Manual Data Logging
The manual data logging function allows you to take a snapshot of the
measurement data at specific moment in time, e.g. when you are running site
monitor to do a site survey or when you are investigating a particular source of
interference.
When you choose the manual mode, you may also wish to enable the
Add
comments to log
option to allow you to add comments to your logging
information, e.g. a description of the location or event. If you enable this option,
a dialog box will appear each time you press the
Log Once button.
The manual data logging option is typically used on Client Manager stations
roaming the network running site monitor.
Automatic Data Logging
The automatic data logging function allows you to log the network performance
automatically at preset intervals. This may be useful if you wish to monitor
recurring events or variation in values over a long period of time.
When you choose the automatic mode, you need to set the measurement
interval to a specific number of seconds.
Automatic data logging is typically used when the Client Manager station is
running a link test at a particular location.
Setting the Logging Options
1. Click the Log Settings tab in the Link Test window or in the Site Monitor
window to display the window pictured in Figure 5-17.
