- Serial/COM/PBX Log
- One of the most widespread equipment generating logs is PBX. LogAnalytics can be used with any type of PBX or other serial cable connected device.
- Firstly you need to connect LogAnalytics by the cable to via-serial log producer physically. Then you need to configure COM/Serial connection. The following connection string could be used. COM1:baud=96 parity=n data=8 stop=1 xon=on dtr=on rts=on The string consists of two parts:
- Serial/COM port name. COM1 means the first computer's communication port, COM2 - the second etc.
- The text after : is configuration string for the specified port. These parameters must be equal to the PBX Serial port settings. See the PBX user's manual for details. Configuration string format is equal to a Windows mode command. It determines the data flow between PBX and PC.
The connection's parameter explanation: - baud - baud rate of PBX data (most significant)
- parity - availability of error check control (y/n)
- data - number of data bits (8 bits - usually)
- stop - number of stop bits (1 bit - usually)
- other parameters depend on PBX to computer handshaking
