Log Events
The 232 Monitor Plus can be set to
keep a log of certain events. See
Chapter 1, Time Events (p. 19) to learn
how to view the log.
• Setting "No" means you do not
want to keep a log.
• Setting "1Fill" means you want to
fill the log buffer once (and
when the log buffer is full, to
stop collecting logs).
• "Continuous" means you want to
continue capturing logs (and
when the buffer is full, to clear
logs to make room for newer
logs).
Status Messages
Normal, Long,
None, Short
The 232 Monitor Plus will notify you
of certain events when "Normal" is
selected; e.g.,
END OF BUFFER
If you find the Status Messages
annoying you can turn them off
(None) or view them briefly (Short).
To let them linger on the screen,
choose Long.
Idle Display
"On" mode displays "Waiting for
data" message on power-up. "Off"
mode doesn't display this message.
No, 1Fill, Cont.
.
On, Off
CHAPTER 3: Configure Menu
Error Messages
NOTE:
When the Monitor is turned on, it will
always pass data through itself, even if it
cannot recognize speed or other
configuration parameters.
If you choose "Fatal," the Monitor
will stop receiving at certain hard-
ware errors (a change in line speed,
etc.). Press any key to begin receiv-
ing again. You can enter Configure
Menu and change a parameter
before returning to View Mode.
If you choose "Warn," a message will
appear at certain hardware errors,
but receiving will continue.
If you find the Error Messages
annoying (for example, when
watching a line that changes speed
in normal operation), you may
suppress them by selecting "None."
Suppress Capture
Choose whether you want data to be
captured as follows:
Off
Capture data from both lines
RD
Don't capture RD data.
TD
Don't capture TD data.
Both Don't capture on either line.
(This option is useful when
you are collecting modem
control transitions and you
want to capture only
hardware handshake
changes.)
Fatal, Warn, None
Off, RD, TD,
Both
