to run the system in automatic mode for a short while: this will populate
the mapping table with an entry for each currently known channel,

Manual - only channels named below are compressed: Offers both
channel filtering and name mapping. If you wish to use this mode, it
may be useful first to run the system in automatic mode for a short while
to populate the mapping table with an entry for each currently known
channel; this can serve as the basis for your own mapping table.
Clicking the
button on any row will open a new row. In the same way,
rows can be deleted by clicking the corresponding
button.
Deleted channels will be transmitted unmapped in “Semi-automatic” mode
and not transmitted in “Manual” mode.
12.1.1.2 Configurable parameters in expert mode
The following additional parameters are available in expert mode:
Advanced
Database directory: Can be used to control the location of the ring-buffer and
associated files. In most configurations, the default location is adequate but
if, for example, a very large ring-buffer is desired and the optional extra flash
memory module is fitted, it may be desirable to use the extra memory for this
purpose. To do this, enter into this field the path to a unique directory under
/media/flash_module.
Log file: It may sometimes be desirable, for debugging purposes, to separate
log messages for this transmitter from the standard system log. The text field
can be populated with a path name which will then be used for dedicated
logging. If left blank, logging occurs (via the standard Linux syslog facility) to
/var/log/messages.
