A short demonstration of a monitoring message:

Interfaces
Tick boxes:
RADIO, COM1, COM2, ETH, Internal
When ticked, the setting for the respective interface(s) is enabled. When the "Internal" interface is
ticked, another set of interface tick-boxes appears as follows:
Internal:
RADIO, COM1, COM2, TS1, TS2, TS3, TS4, TS5, Modbus TCP, TCP proxy
When ticked, the setting for the respective internal interface(s) is enabled (see the description below).
■
Common parameters for all interfaces:
Rx Tx
Tick boxes.
When ticked, packets (frames, messages) coming in the respective direction are monitored. A
packet is considered a Tx one when it comes out from the respective software module (e.g.
RADIO or Terminal Server) and vice versa. When an external interface (e.g. COM:phy) is
monitored, the Tx also means packets being transmitted from the RipEX over the respective
interface (Rx means "received"). Understanding the directions over the internal interfaces may
not be that straightforward, please consult the diagram below for clarification.
Please note the separate monitoring of Rx or Tx frames is not possible at the ETH interface.
Display
List box: HEX, HEX+ASCII, ASCII
Default = HEX
The format of monitoring output.
Offset [bytes]
Default = 0
Number of bytes from the beginning of packet/frame, which will not be displayed. The Length
of bytes will be displayed starting from the immediately next byte.
This feature is not available at the ETH interface.
Length [bytes]
Default = 100
Number of bytes, which will be displayed from each packet/frame.
Example: Offset=2, Length=4 means, that bytes from the 3
rd
byte to the 6
th
(inclusive) will be
displayed:
Data (HEX):
