Process Viewer Buttons

Controlling the Viewer

This example shows the Internal Process viewer.

Status bar and control buttons

The options and controls available in the viewer utility control the viewer only, not the actual internal
system processes. In other words, you cannot stop or freeze the actual internal processing system
from the internal process viewer.

Status Bar

The status bar is the area at the bottom right of the viewer window, and displays current system
information, such as the "average merge time", the transaction number and more. Hold the mouse
cursor above the status information to find out what the information represents.

Buttons

OK: The OK button closes the viewer, and is identical to the "Files" menu's "close" option.

FREEZE: This option "freezes" the viewer at it's current display line. It behaves as a "toggle", in other
words, clicking the first time freezes the display; clicking the second time "unfreezes" the display, which
then continues to display lines. Although similar to the "Files" menu's "stop" option, no lines are
skipped; the viewer continues displaying all activity from the point at which it was frozen. The "stop"
option is explained in the "Process Viewer Menus".

READ KEY: This option checks the hardware copy protection key and tests it's current communication
status. Only one machine in the system hosts the key, and runs a program that "broadcasts" the key
info. Use this option to determine if the key is functioning properly. The viewer does not show the
content or value the key returns, only that the communication was successful. For example:

11:08:27.300 Send Key MailSlot
11:08:27.520 Mailslot received: Key info
