To manually note an event that pertains to all channels at a given timestamp (cycle-specific event):
In the Events tab of the MOS Trends Window, click on the Notes column at the timestamp
of interest.
Enter notes in the Cycle Notes dialog and click OK.
The recorded notes will appear in the Event Window and will be added to the summary
report created with the merge utility. These notes will not replace MOS values for the
affected cycles. MOS results for these cycles will be written to the report and included in all
summary calculations.

To automatically detect null MOS events:
While no test is in progress, configure the Events area of the Settings Voice Quality tab
to Enable Event Detection as described in Section 4.4.2.
During subsequent testing, null events will be automatically entered in the Events tab of the
MOS Trends Window as channel-specific events. Like channel-specific events that are
manually entered, these events will replace the corresponding MOS entry in the summary
report and will not count toward calculation of results.
