Clear OutputEnabled regardless of station status. When pressed, all text in the “standard output” area is cleared.
NOTE: Data in standard output area is fetched from a memory buffer in the platform daemon. Clearing the output does not actually
clear the daemon’s buffer. Therefore, if you change the selection away from, and then back to the station, it re-fetches all
buffered data.
Pause OutputEnabled if the selected station has a “Running” status. When pressed, the button toggles to “Load Output”, and the next press back toggles back to “Pause Output” (and so on).
- During a paused output, text remains frozen in the “standard ouput” area. This is useful when the station is rapidly writing
output.
- When you press Load Output, text in the “station output” area is reloaded with the station’s buffered output, and output remains updating in real time.
Output DialogWhen pressed, it produces a separate “non-modal” output window displaying the same output text as in the Application Director’s
“standard output” area. Included are buttons to Dump Threads, Pause Output, Clear Output, and Close the window.
NOTE: You may find this compact version of a station’s standard output easier to work with than in the main area of the Application Director. Also, if needed you can open multiple output dialogs for comparison purposes.
Stream To FileOpens a dialog for assigning a file name. Once this file is opened, the system saves all application output to this file.
