5.1.1 Description
This manual describes how to use the NM70xx remote monitoring software. The remote mon-

PC's and compatibles. The purpose of the system is to retrieve status and measurements
from the ILS rack and to change ILS operation and parameters from a remote site. The
retrieved data can be displayed and further processed by programs on the PC.
For example, the ILS data can be
• Displayed on the screen.
• Saved on disk for later use.
• Exported to other programs for graphical display of parameter variations.
