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
for information on using different log
views.
