The timing resolution should not be set too fast or data may reach the bottom of the grid (t(rest)) before it can be read. If data does reach the bottom of the grid, it is not lost but it is accumulated in the final row. Accumulated data is added to the bottom row for up to three days. After this time the data is discarded and the PID is no longer monitored.
When a service log is being monitored from multiple locations, only one location should be selected to consume entries. This will allow all locations adequate time to view or log the entries.
The customer must balance the level of detail required (the timing resolution) with the infrastructure that is required to collect, store, and collate the information. Typically the timing resolution is set for 1000 ms; in this case the grid cell will contain a value approximating to 'packets per second'; to improve accuracy each count has an associated duration.
