Process Monitor

As it operates, a DataMan device logs statistics such as the number of triggers received, the number of symbols read (and not read), and the number of trigger overruns.

You can choose to have a separate Process Monitor document for each device, or you can have a single Process Monitor document for every device you want to monitor. If you want to have one Process Monitor document for each of your devices, select your device and then click the Process Monitor button and repeat this process for every device. If you want to monitor all of your devices on a single Process Monitor page, click the arrow on the Process Monitor button and click the Add to Process Monitor option that pops up.

If the Process Monitor button is disabled, it is because the device you selected does not support process monitoring or the device is open in this or another Setup Tool connection. After you connected to the Setup Tool, a DataMan device stops generating statistics about decode attempts by default. To re-enable process statistics when connected to the Setup Tool, you must manually start the Process Monitor. In the upper toolbar, click Actions, then click Switch to Process Monitor.
