8.3 Viewing Files On-line

Sometimes, it is useful to review a particular piece of historical data
on-line at the time you expect new events to appear in the log. PAS
allows you to retrieve historical data from a particular log without
storing it to a file. The data appears only in the window on your screen.
You can save it manually to the database.

To view the log data on-line, check the On-line button

on the

PAS toolbar, select the log you want to retrieve in the Logs menu, and
then click on the Poll button

. Only new log records are retrieved

from the device. If you want to review the entire log from the
beginning, click on the Restore log button

, and then click on the

Poll button

.

NOTE

When reading multi-section profile data, only the first section is
available for reading online.

See Chapter 9
