To keep the Upload Scheduler running, the On-line button on the PAS toolbar must be checked all
the time. If you uncheck it, the scheduler stops operations. This does not cause loss of data, since the
scheduler will resume operations when you check this button again.
8.2.1 Suspending the Scheduler
To suspend the Upload Scheduler, check the Suspend Scheduler box at right. To activate the Upload
Scheduler, leave this box unchecked.
8.2.2 Running the Scheduler on Demand
You can run the scheduler at any time outside the schedule by checking the Start Now box at right. This
is a one-time action. After uploading is completed, the Upload Scheduler un-checks this box automatically.
Reviewing Upload Problems
When the Upload Scheduler fails to retrieve data from the device, or some data is missing, or another
problem occurs, it puts an error message to the log file. To review this file, select System Log from the
View menu.
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 Viewing Files for information on using different log views.
