Configuring Performance Scout

Catena is available with an optional Palm OS based handheld application called Performance Scout.  Performance Scout lets you use an inexpensive handheld device running Palm OS to collect down time, throughput, and efficiency data remotely. 

Data is collected using the Palm OS device.  The device is then hotsynced to transfer the data to the desired database file.

To change the Project data file to which data will be synced, perform the following steps.

1.   Open the Project's data file.

2.   Select Configuration | Performance Scout from the menu bar to select the configuration window.

4.   To transfer data from the handheld unit to the Project's data file, Hotsync the device using the Palm OS desktop software provided with the device.


Note  The Performance Scout conduit must have been setup during Catena's installation for hotsyncing to be successful.  If this option was not performed during installation, it can be done later by running ConduitInstaller.exe located in the application's installation directory (c:\program files\catena\ by default).
