Status Line

5. Status Line
The communications status line shows the address of the device which is currently communicating in the "Add"ress box. The RX and TX numbers show how many packets have been sent to the current device in the current session, each time you click on a different device the numbers will reset to zero. The ERR box shows the number of errors in the current session with the current device. The Health box shows the percentage of successful packets for the current session for up to 100 packets. When the session hits more than 100 packets the earlier packets are pushed out of the tally, only the latest 100 are used in the math. Finally the status line shows a log of the current communications activity.
