MAS - All Operation History Viewer Menus & Icons

The Operation History Viewer window has a menu bar and a toolbar. This topic provides a reference list of all menu and icon commands. See MAS - Operation History Viewer Window.

File Menu

File > New Launches the Session Properties dialog box. You can then create a new live or historical session. See MAS - OHV - Session Properties Dialog Box.

File > Open... Launches the standard Windows Open dialog box. You can open an existing session file (*.SSN) or snapshot file (*.SNP).

File > Save Saves the session using the standard Windows method. You can select to save in one of two formats:

Session Files (*.SSN) Saves only a session's properties. You can modify the properties to create different event viewing scenarios.

Snapshot Files (*.SNP) Saves a session's properties and the event data matching these properties. The system purges the operation history database periodically. However, by creating a snapshot file, you can keep the event data for as long as you require.

File > Save As... Launches the standard Windows Save As dialog box, where you can select a different filename or file type.

File > Close Closes the currently open session.

File > Session Properties Launches the Session Properties dialog box, where you can amend the properties of the current session. See MAS - OHV - Session Properties Dialog Box.

File > Event Properties Launches the Event Properties dialog box for the event selected in the Operation History Viewer grid. This displays the details of the selected event. See MAS - OHV - Event Properties Dialog Box.

File > Options... Launches the Options dialog box, where you can set defaults for new sessions, customize the display of the Operation History Viewer grid and set preferences for exporting text. See MAS - OHV - Options Dialog Box.

File > Export Launches the Export Operation History Events dialog box, where you can export operation history events as a *.TXT or *.MDB file. You can then view, query and search the data using alternate tools. See MAS - OHV - Export Operation History Events Dialog Box.

File > Pause Pauses a live event feed. You can then scroll through the events.

File > Resume Resumes a live event feed that has been paused.

File > Data Source... Launches the standard Windows ODBC Data Source Administrator dialog box, where you can select a system data source. See MAS - OHV - Selecting a Data Source & ODBC Tracing.

Note: If the Operation History Viewer is installed on the tracing system machine, a data source is created automatically and you do not need to select it here.

File > Exit Closes down the Operation History Viewer.

Edit Menu

Edit > Copy Copies the selection and places it on the Windows Clipboard.

Selection Menu

You can change session selection activities using the Selection menu commands, rather than having to use the Session Properties dialog box.

Selection > All Activities This selects all activities currently in the operation history database and displays them in the Operation History Viewer grid.

Note: When this option is selected, any number ranges you enter in the Values dialog box for Mailbox Activity or Port Activity events are ignored.

Selection > Mailbox Activity Launches the Values dialog box. See MAS - OHV - Values Dialog Box.

You can restrict the display by entering a range of mailbox numbers in the Values field and clicking OK. The Operation History Viewer grid then displays mailbox activity events for that range.

If you don’t enter a value, when you click OK it displays all mailbox activity events in the grid.

Selection > Port Activity Launches the Values dialog box.

You can restrict the display by entering a range of port numbers in the Values field and clicking OK. The Operation History Viewer grid then displays port activity events for that range.

If you don’t enter a value, when you click OK it displays all port activity events in the grid.

Selection > PBX Integration Activity This selects all PBX Integration activity events and displays them in the Operation History Viewer grid.
