Section 6. Network Status and Resolving Communication Problems
where
failures = number of communication failures
retries = number of communication retries
attempts = total number of communication attempts
The Communication History can be displayed in a larger view by right clicking
within the history for a device and selecting
Comm History from the short cut
menu. Each segment of time in this larger view represents 10 minute intervals.
Clicking on a segment will display the time period for the interval and the
number of Attempts (A), Retries (R), and Failures (F) during that period. This
information is provided by a popup above the history and by a line below the
Communication History. (The popup can be turned off by clearing the
Show
Annotations check box.) The right and left arrow keys can be used to move
right or left one segment at a time. You can zoom in on a particular interval by
clicking and dragging your mouse cursor from the upper left of an area to the
lower right of an area. (To return to normal view, click and drag from the right
to the left.)
One or all of these visual indicators can be toggled on/off from the View menu.
