does not cause loss of data, since the scheduler will resume operations when you
check this button again.

Suspending the Scheduler

To suspend the Upload Scheduler, check the Suspend Scheduler box at right. To
activate the Upload Scheduler, leave this box unchecked.

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.

Retrieving EN50160 Statistics Files

The EN50160 statistics files and present contents of the EN50160 evaluation
counters can be retrieved by PAS and stored to a database for later analysis.

Using the Upload Scheduler

The PAS Upload Scheduler automatically retrieves the EN50160 statistics files on a
daily or weekly basis depending on the EN50160 evaluation period selected in your
device.
Select the Daily or Weekly schedule for the EN50160 statistics files when configuring
the upload schedule (see

Using the Upload Scheduler

). Check the Data log #9 and

#10 boxes in the Select Logs dialog box for uploading the EN50160 Compliance
Statistics and EN50160 Harmonics Survey files respectively.

Retrieving EN50160 Statistics Files on Demand

To manually retrieve the EN50160 statistics files on demand, select “Upload
EN50160 Compliance Stats” from the Logs menu and specify the database to which
you want the data to be stored.

Retrieving the EN50160 Online Statistics

To retrieve the present contents of the EN50160 statistics counters accumulated
since the beginning of the current evaluation period, select “Upload EN50160 Online
Stats” from the Logs menu and specify the database to which you want the data to
be stored. The statistics records are marked as online events.
See

Viewing the EN50160 Online Statistics Report

for information on how to get the

EN50160 compliance report for the latest online statistics stored in the database.

Viewing Historical Data 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

.

Notice that there is a difference between retrieving waveforms on-line and viewing
waveforms from a file. The online waveforms are read one record a time, so that a
multi-record waveform series may not be viewed as a single waveform.
