Figure 33 DataScope Viewer Output 
 
 
 
 
Notes 
The Viewer is supported by a buffer that limits viewable records 
to 512 at any given time. If the DataScope is allowed to run 
without a break, it will overwrite records (oldest first) to remain 
within the 512 line limit. 
 
The DataScope can not present valid data from a device if the 
related driver is in simulation / training mode, or if the device has 
been assigned the NUL port in the Compass Configurator.  
You may see a series of carriage returns displayed in the Viewer 
if the test device does not readily respond. 
Remote nodes only appear on this list if they have been 
configured in the Administrator and there is proper security 
authorization. 
 
 
Click on Stop to freeze the current page of data 
on the screen. The Stop button toggles to 
display Start – click on Start when you are 
ready to view more information. (Note that 
when you click on Stop, you also freeze the 
DataScope – new information is collected only 
when you click on Start to restart the Viewer 
display.)  
 
Click on Clear to remove all records from the 
Viewer, or on Close to close down the Viewer.
