Network Paused - VisualWeather has paused communication in the
network.
Unreachable - The device cannot be reached through the network.
Comm Status - A device has four communication states: Normal, Marginal,
Critical, or Unknown. The current status of the device will be reflected in this
column.
Line State - The state of communication with the device in the network.
Off-line - No communication is taking place with the device.
On-line - Communication for all parent devices for the device has been
successful and the parent devices have been put into a transparent state.
Therefore, an On-Line state for a device indicates that the communication
link is ready for the device, but it may not necessarily be on-line yet.
Transparent - The device is part of an active communication link. For
instance, when a datalogger is called using a phone modem, the phone
modem will become transparent once communication is established with
the datalogger.
Comm Disabled - Communication has been disabled either by the user or
by VisualWeather.
Hanging Up - VisualWeather is in the process of shutting down
communication with the device.
Vals Last Coll - The number of values that were collected during the last data
collection attempt.
Vals to Coll - The number of values that were available for collection during
the last data collection.
Last Col Attempt - The date and time that data collection was last attempted
with the datalogger.
Last Data Collection - The date and time of the last successful data collection
with the datalogger.
Next Data Coll - The date and time of the next scheduled data collection for
the device.
Total Attempts - The total number of times VisualWeather has attempted to
communicate with the device.
Total Failures - The total number of times the primary and secondary retries
for a device have been exhausted before the communication attempt was
successful.
Total Retries - The total number of times VisualWeather has attempted to
communicate with a device after the original attempt failed.
