Box Mode screen
The Box Mode screen displays by default when you first log
on the Server, or when the Box Mode option is selected from
the Network menu. (See Figs. 1:2-1 and 1:2-2.) The box
mode indicates whether the Server box is functioning in the
“live” mode, or in the “archive” mode. When the box mode
displays on the screen, you can view the current mode set
for the Server, and can change this setting, if necessary.
NOTE: When accessing the Box Mode screen for the first time,
the ER Status pop-up box opens to inform you that the ER unit is
currently in the evaluation mode. To continue using the box in the
evaluation mode, click the “X” in the upper right corner to close
the pop-up box. (Refer to Appendix A: Evaluation Mode for infor-
mation on using the Server in the evaluation mode, or for
changing from this mode to the activated mode.)
Live Mode
Once your Server is configured and the Server box is set in
the “live” mode, it will receive and process real time data
from the R3000. The Client reporting application can then
be used to capture data and create views.
Archive Mode
In the “archive” mode, the Server box solely functions as a
receptacle in which historical, archived files are placed. In
this mode, “old” files placed on the Server can be viewed
using the Client reporting application.
