EPORTS
Conference Composer can automatically generate reports of a Project, Device Chain,
or Device which show all the settings configured for the device. A Project report will
consist of the device chains and any devices that are part of the device chain. A device
chain report will only include the devices included in the device chain. A device
report only includes the settings for that particular device.
Once a report has been selected, the system prompts for whether all the presets should
be included in the reports. Select Yes if you would like all the presets to be included
in the reports. Select No if you do not want the preset information to be included in
the report. In this case you will only report the current operating settings of the
device.
Reports may be customized by allowing you to put in a company name and address
information. You can enter this information by selecting the Project and type Report
tab.
To print the report, you have the option to print directly to a printer and/or to create a
Portable Disk Format (PDF) file.
