The event log list
The test start event (Started) and stop event (Stopped) are always shown in the
event log.
The View setting applies a port filter. A single port or all ports can be
selected. Events with no port association will always pass.
The CSV export button is for writing all events (un-filtered) to a file in a CSV
format (Comma Separated Values). The separator used can be configured in
the Instrument Toolbar > Configuration > General menu screen,
under Miscellaneous. It is not possible to export the file during a test.
The events are displayed in a scrollable table. The content of the seven
columns are:
No.
The index in the log.
Time
The time when the event was detected.
Port
Port number for events related to a port. Otherwise this field is blank.
Type
Event type icon.
Alarm events are indicated by a red icon.
Error events are indicated by a yellow icon.
Threshold events are indicated by either a red or yellow icon with
a T in the middle.
Src.
The source of the event. This row denotes the originating
interface/technology or application.
Description
The event description. For alarms and errors there are a one-to-one
relation to the items found in the Statistics screen.
Dur./Count
For alarms, this is the alarm duration measured in seconds. An alarm
event where the duration is not know yet, will show the text On.
For errors, this is the number of errors in the errored second.
Event log and statistics can show different alarm duration and error count
when values are summed up an compared. This is because statistics
discards the last interval if it is not complete when the test is stopped. There
will be no differences if the test duration is set to a multiple of the interval
length or if intervals are disabled.
