You can resize the Status window, or drag the bar between the graphs

and the block display area, to see the graphs in more detail.

6.3 The summary window

This window provides at-a-glance state of health information about all
instruments on your network. To open it, choose Windows →
Summary window
from Scream!'s main window.

Every instrument known to Scream! is listed in this window, with
coloured icons representing their timing, mass position and data flow

status. The window also reports how many triggers have been
communicated to Scream! in status blocks. To make Scream! forget all
this information and start afresh, click

. This will not

remove streams from the main window, the Waveview windows or the

stream buffer.

In the leftmost four columns, each entry is a coloured rectangle with a
border. A

grey

rectangle indicates that no relevant data have been

received from the instrument since Scream! was started.

Green

indicates that this measurement is satisfactory;

yellow

indicates that

some attention may be necessary, and

red

indicates that there is

probably a problem.

If a box has a coloured border, an unsatisfactory reading has been

received since the last reset, but the status has since improved. Thus,
if a box goes from yellow to green, the border will be coloured yellow

until you reset. If the same box subsequently turns red momentarily
and then returns to yellow or green, the border will change to red.
