You can use Status displays to check on the status of individual channels or outstations (see Status Displays in the ClearSCADA Guide to ViewX and WebX Clients), and Mimics or Lists to monitor one or more channels or outstations on your system. Lists that display communication statistics, such as those listed below, are useful for monitoring the state of communications on a ClearSCADA system:
- Channel Scanning Statistics List
(this includes the number of messages that have been sent to the outstations via each channel, and how many of these messages succeeded or failed, since the statistics were last reset) - Channel Serial Port Statistics List
- Outstation Comms. Statistics List
- PSTN Channel Calls List
- PSTN Outstation Calls List.
The Lists are available from the Queries Bar. For further information on using Lists, see the ClearSCADA Guide to Lists.
