Log onto the Sample Viewer

To use the Sample Viewer control, you must log on to a session.

If the RequireEntityLogon property is set to True and you are not logged in to one or more entities with the Can Collect QM data capability, you must log in to at least one entity that has the Can Collect QM data capability selected.

If you have a filter setting saved in the UI_Config table, it is fetched and used. The RequireEntityLogon property is used to control the EntityFilterRestriction property settings and to display the past, current, and future samples that match the filter criteria. The characteristics associated with the sample and the results of the characteristics are also displayed.

If the RequireEntityLogon property is set to False, you do not need to login to an entity. The information is displayed automatically from all the entities which have the Can Collect QM Data capability enabled.

The only filter properties that are saved in the UI_Config table are RequireEntityLogon and EntityFilterRestriction. The other properties are run-time filters and are not saved between sessions. You must set the filter properties for filtering the samples.
