Viewing Statistics for Your Client Adapter
Viewing Statistics for Your Client Adapter
ACU enables you to view statistics that indicate how data is being received and transmitted by your client
adapter.
To view your client adapters statistics, open ACU; then click the Statistics icon or select Statistics from
the Commands drop-down menu. The Statistics screen appears (see Figure 7-4).
Note The name of the current profile appears in parentheses at the top of the screen.
Note The receive and transmit statistics are host statistics. That is, they show packets and errors received
or sent by the Windows device. Link status tests from the access point or site survey tool are
performed at the firmware level; therefore, they have no effect on the statistics shown in the Statistics
screen.
Figure 7-4 Statistics Screen
The statistics are calculated as soon as your client adapter is started or the Reset button is selected and
are continually updated at the rate specified by the Screen Update Timer. Instructions for changing the
Screen Update Timer setting are provided in Table 7-2.
