Customizing the Event Table
Customizing the Event Table
Note: This function is available in Advanced mode only.
You can include or exclude items from the events table to better suit your
needs.
Note: Hiding the fiber sections, the merged events or the comments will not
delete these items.
³
Fiber sections: You can display or hide fiber sections in the events table
and in the linear view, depending on the types of values you want to
display.
For example, by hiding the fiber sections, you can obtain the running
total of connector and splice losses instead of having a loss value for
the entire link.
³
Merged events: Merged events consist of events that are located very
close to one another. When the application detects such events, it
displays one global loss value and individual values and type for the
merged events. It is possible to display or hide merged events in the
events table.
³
Comments: You can display or hide the comments area appearing at
the bottom of the events table.
