Log View

This shows the initial view of the whole file, as if it was in a text editor. Experienced engineers can
search through the data for details that may not be captured by the reports. Use the Find menu to help
with searching.

Find Menu

The Find menu has the following options for manual searching through the log.

Text … : simple text search as in Notepad, with
similar options. (Ctrl-F will also work)

Current Log: goes to next ls d command in the log
(from the active processor, standby processor or
communications interface)

Backup Log: goes to next ls b command in the log

Chassis/slot ... : goes to the next I/O module prompt for the given
chassis, slot and slice.

Analysis View

This view shows a representation of the system and provides detailed reports on parts of the system. It
will show the active processor’s individual report when opened. A navigational window lets you choose
a report.

This shows a simple picture of the system, and provides access to the
reports described below.

Hovering the mouse over a module will show its description in the title, and
an explanation of the colour.

Beige: no module fitted

Green: fitted module, either healthy or no data gathered

Amber: possible fault, needs further investigation

Orange: definite fault on that module (or its configuration).

Red: critical fault found which should be reported to ICS Triplex.

Blue border: upgrade recommended. Thicker borders are higher

priority.

Left-click a module to see its main report, as described below.

Right-click a module to see the other available reports in a screen menu.

This system has one processor. If it had a second processor, it would be
shown in the right-hand slot. The left hand slot is always the active
processor – it is not possible for the program to determine which physical
slot the module is in.

Processors and communication interfaces have three reports. Left-clicking

on the module provides the basic report. Right-clicking provides the current and backup logs. The
contents of the processor log are described in a later section.
