ADMINISTRATOR SECTION CHAPTER 2: CONFIGURING THE ER SERVER

Box Mode screen

The Box Mode screen displays by default when you first log on the Server, or when the Box Mode option is selected from the Network menu. (See Figs. 1:2-1 and 1:2-2.) The box mode indicates whether the Server box is functioning in the “live” mode, or in the “archive” mode. When the box mode displays on the screen, you can view the current mode set for the Server, and can change this setting, if necessary.

NOTE: When accessing the Box Mode screen for the first time, the ER Status pop-up box opens to inform you that the ER unit is currently in the evaluation mode. To continue using the box in the evaluation mode, click the “X” in the upper right corner to close the pop-up box. (Refer to Appendix A: Evaluation Mode for infor- mation on using the Server in the evaluation mode, or for changing from this mode to the activated mode.)

Live Mode

Once your Server is configured and the Server box is set in the “live” mode, it will receive and process real time data from the Web access logging device. The Client reporting application can then be used to capture data and create views.

Archive Mode

In the “archive” mode, the Server box solely functions as a receptacle in which historical, archived files are placed. In this mode, “old” files placed on the Server can be viewed using the Client reporting application.
