Creating Reports¶
Reports can be created in PDF format for the currently open and selected project. There are four categories of report:
- PTP Proposal reports offer a general overview. Options are Project or PTP Link.
- PTP Installation reports contain detailed configuration and performance parameters. Options are Project or PTP Link.
- PMP Proposal reports offer a general overview. Options are Project, Hub or Access Point.
- PMP Installation reports contain detailed configuration and performance parameters for the PMP Links to Subscriber Modules. Options are Project, Hub, Access Point or PMP Link.
Installation reports contain ordered lists of field settings. These are very useful when completing the Installation Wizard of the ODU web interface.
PTP Proposal Reports¶
To obtain a PTP Proposal report, open the required page from the navigation tree (PTP Links list, or PTP Link), then choose to preview or create the report:
- To preview, click Proposal Report PDF
- To create as a PDF, click File, PTP Proposal Reports and one of Project or PTP Link.
The Project proposal report consists of a project summary (customer details, network map, list of links and BOM) and plans of each link (path profile, throughput, link summary, performance charts, climatic factors & losses and BOM).
The PTP Link proposal report consists of a project summary, path profile, throughput, link summary, performance charts, climatic factors & losses and BOM.
PTP Installation Reports¶
To obtain a PTP Installation report, open the required page from the navigation tree (PTP Links list or PTP Link), then choose to preview or create the report:
- To preview, click Installation Report PDF
- To create as a PDF, click File, PTP Installation Reports and one of Project or PTP Link.
The Project installation report consists of a project summary (customer details, network map, list of PTP links and BOM) and details of each PTP link (link summary, path profile, link configuration, site installation notes, detailed throughput data and regulatory conditions).
The PTP Link installation report consists of details of one PTP link (link summary, path profile, link configuration, site installation notes, detailed throughput data, regulatory conditions and BOM).
PMP Proposal Reports¶
To obtain a PMP Proposal report, open the required page from the navigation tree (PMP Links list, Hub, or Access Point), then choose to preview or create the report:
- To preview, click Proposal Report PDF
- To create as a PDF, click File, PMP Proposal Reports and one of Project, Hub or Access Point.
To limit the Project and Hub level reports to only show the Network level information tick the Network layer only in PMP Installation Report option under Tools, Options (Preferences in Mac), Reports. This significantly reduces the size of the report where there are a large number of subscribers.
The Project proposal report consists of a project summary (customer details, network map, list of Access Points, a BOM for PMP Network Equipment and a BOM for Subscriber Equipment). This is followed by a Hub report for each Hub in the project, which in turn includes the details for each Access Point.
The Hub proposal report consists of a project summary, a Hub Summary including a network map for the Hub, list of Access Points, and a BOM for the Network Equipment. This is followed by an Access Point report for each Access Point on the Hub.
The Access Point proposal report consists of a project summary, an Access Point Summary, a Subscriber Module Summary, detailed throughput data for the Access Point, a BOM for the Access Point Equipment and a BOM for the Subscriber Module Equipment.
PMP Installation Reports¶
To obtain a PMP Installation report, open the required page from the navigation tree (PMP Links list, Hub, Access Point or Subscriber Module), then choose to preview or create the report:
- To preview, click Installation Report PDF
- To create as a PDF, click File, PMP Installation Reports and one of Project, Hub, Access Point or PMP Link.
To limit the Project and Hub level reports to only show the Network level information tick the Network layer only in PMP Installation Report option under Tools, Options (Preferences in Mac), Reports. This significantly reduces the size of the report where there are a large number of subscribers.
The Project installation report consists of a project summary (customer details, network map, list of Access Points and BOM). This is followed by a Hub report for each Hub in the project, which in turn includes the Access Point and details of each PMP link, see the sections below for details on each lower level report.
The Hub installation report consists of a project summary (customer details, network map of the hub area, list of Access Points and BOM). This is followed by an Access Point report for each Access Point on the Hub and details of each PMP link.
The Access Point installation report consists of a project summary, Access Point Summary, installation notes for the Access Point, network map of the Access Point area, detailed throughput data for the Access Point, BOM and details of each PMP link.
The PMP Link installation report consists of details of one PMP link (link summary, path profile, installation notes for the Subscriber Module, Performance reports and BOM).
