Adv. Logging Menu
The following paragraphs describe the menu options available on the Advanced Spectrum
Logging Menu.
Advanced Spectrum Logging (ASL)
The Advanced Spectrum Logging (ASL) feature for the Signal Hawk allows the user to collect
traces from the unit over a long period of time. These traces can then be played back as if they
were being viewed in real time, allowing the user to identify anomalies in the spectrum that
coincide with different events, such as illegal carrier events, system performance degradation,
or alarm triggers. This information is usually used to troubleshoot a system experiencing
intermittent events.
The ASL feature requires that the computer running the software be equipped with Microsoft
SQL Server. The ideal installation for this setup is 2008 R2, but it could possibly be run on later
versions.
NOTE
Using SQL server prior to 2008 is not recommend.
In order to utilize the ASL perform the following actions:
1. Create a configuration file, which sets up the parameters for multiple sweeps. See
Create a configuration file .
2. Create a new database in order to start recording data. See Create a Database .
3. Start Spectrum Trace Logging. Once a configuration has been created and a database
attached, trace logging can be started. See Spectrum Trace Logging .
4. Playback. Once data is recorded in the attached database, you may also open the unit
for playback. See Spectrum Trace Playback .
5. Search Database. Once data is recorded in the attached database, you may search the
database using masks and limit lines to identify intermittent events. See Database
Search .
