SID Monitoring Station

Menubar

Most of the menu items are directly accessible through shortcuts.
Also, as with any Windows application, menu items are accessible by the keyboard after pressing the Alt key.
The menubar contains the following elements:

  • the File menu:
    File Menu It is used for exiting the application ( Exit ).
    Note: one can also use the notification icon.

  • the View menu:
    View Menu It is used for showing the various tabs.

  • the Data menu:
    Data Menu It is used for:
    • starting or stopping the signal level sampling.
      Note: this can also be done through the status bar or the notification icon.
    • Reset Detection Algorithm resetting the history values of the aberrant behavior detection algorithm. This asks the algorithm to forget what it has learnt so far.
      Note: This may be useful after a change in the tuning parameters or if the algorithm is "diverging".
    • Reapply Algorithm Parameters reapplying to the existing data new parameters of the aberrant behavior detection algorithm .
      Note: This may be useful if one wants to process the existing database with a new set of parameters.
      This operation is very demanding in terms of memory (1Gb of RAM is welcome) and of processing time (expect a few tens of minutes to a few hours, depending on the database size.)
