Changing Screen Appearance
Once the monitor window appears, Port Monitor is active and collecting data. If
any cumulative data has been saved from previous sessions, it is automatically
brought in and used.
Port Monitor continues to run and collect data until you terminate it, at which
point all accumulated data is automatically saved for use in the next session.
Changing Screen
Appearance
While Port Monitor is running, there are a number of commands and controls that
change the appearance of the screen.
*
The Reset command does not clear raw data from the calcs.dat file. It simply
resets the selected display fields to their null values. For more information
regarding calcs.dat, see page 40.
