[. . . ] Before you start reading this documentation, you should already be familiar with the OPERATM system in general. The purpose of the OPERATM Control Center is to schedule test calls and the evaluation of speech quality parameters between various OPERATM systems and to remote control these systems through a TCP/IP connection. It allows the user to create complex schedules consisting of up to some hundred commands without having to think about the synchronization and allocation of the resources. Commands may be automatically repeated and rescheduled after a certain time, e. g. [. . . ] It presents the contents of the result file which was created during the measurement. You may drag the columns with the mouse in order to change their sequence, and you may modify the sort order by clicking into the heading of any column. Please note that between column 6 and 7 there is border which splits the table into two parts. Since the first six rows are used for grouping the rows, you are not allowed to drag a column from the left part of the table to the right part and vice versa. 5. 1 During the measurement, the results are written in the file that is shown in the title bar of the main dialog window. As a default, the results are stored in c:\programme\opera\databases\results. txt. This is the file which is opened every time when you start the OPERATM Control Center. If you want to open another result file, choose the menu option File|Open. To create a new result file, select the menu option File|New. You may, as well, save the current results in another file, therefore select the menu option File|Save as. The chosen file will immediately be opened in the result view of the OPERATM Control Center. 5. 2 The Result File It is also possible to freeze rows and columns by pulling the border line between the row with the column titles and the results values down with the mouse, or pulling the left most border line of the table to the right. Therefore move the mouse near to the corresponding line until the mouse symbol turns into a little lock symbol. As shown in Figure 5. 5, you will in a first step define a condition for the alert. This is done in the "Limit Definition" section. In a second step you will define what action should be executed if the condition defined is fulfilled during the measurement. Check the button titled "Execute program on alert", and enter a program that is to be executed. This may be a batch file, or , as shown in the example setup in Figure 5. 5, the Windows network command "net send" to send a message via an IP network. Alerts Figure 5. 5: The Alerts dialog window. 5. 6 Clearing the Result File If you want to delete all the results before starting a new series of measurements, select the menu View|Clear. . . and confirm the warning which pops up with a click on yes.

As mentioned in Section 5. 1, you may choose a different location on your computer where you want to store the result file. 5. 7 As a default, the Averages functionality is switched on in the Control Center. If this option is activated, the results are divided into groups. [. . . ] A dialog window as shown in Figure 7. 1 will be displayed. Installation & Using Figure 7. 1: The settings dialog window of the Time Synchronization program. First a reference computer has to be set. This is done in the "Network" field of the "Settings & Sate" tab of the dialog window. You can use the Browse button to select a reference computer. If no reference is chosen, the reference computer is the local machine. [. . . ]
