This transaction is used to test the quality of the line in Client/Server installations (especially via WAN/internet).
At regular intervals the communication between Client → Server and Server → Client is tested (depending on which checkbox has been checked under “Last Transmission”). Statistics and transmissions are written to the log and can be displayed by clicking the button [View Log]. Thus, any errors which may arise can be traced back. The counters “Snd Error” and “Rcv.Error” are incremented on each error that occurs, respectively.
The communication is tested for a time period via the [Test] button and is written to the log file afterwards. The buttons [Start] and [ Stop] have to be clicked, when the periodic tests have to be started or halted.
A bulk transmission test can also be carried out. For this purpose, the compressed file “Trade2 root directory/tmp/syscotfil.zip” has to be available in the specified directory stated at the bottom of the panel with the required size. The file can be created via the button [Generate] out of SYSCOT.TTO. The file size is approx. 25 KB.
