IMPORTANT: Port L (the Ethernet port) is not supported by the Data Line Monitor
program.

View Log File

After data has been captured to disk, it may be viewed by entering the name of the
file in this field and pressing F10.

Display LCN/SNA Address

When monitoring an X.25, frame relay, or SNA link, unwanted data may be
filtered out by specifying a logical channel number (LCN) or an SDLC address.
Only data for that address or LCN is displayed.

Delete Log File

Once data captured to disk is no longer needed, it may be deleted by entering the
file name in this field and pressing F10.

Send END MONITOR Request

If the NMCS system is taken down while a monitor is in progress, the monitoring
unit continues with the monitor request. Once NMCS is back up, any character
may be placed in this field and an End Monitor Request is sent to the port
specified in the line module and port fields.

Condensed Mode

For character oriented protocols, the normal mode of display is to place data on the
next line if the transmit or receive status has changed. Also, transmitted data
displays in normal video while received data displays in reverse video. By placing
a character in this field the new line function is overridden. Received data continue
to display in reverse video, however, all data is displayed on one line until the end
of the line is reached, at which point it wraps around to the next line.

The monitor program is initiated from the main menu by pressing F3 when under
DOS or Windows 95. When running under Windows 3.1, this program should have
its own program item.
