  76.  
  77.           In either Data tap or Data online modes, the monitoring
  78.           station is that computer which is running the Data
  79.           Analyzer program.  Depending on the mode you select, you
  80.           may or may not be allowed to transmit data.  In monitor
  81.           only mode, this protects the online devices from being
  82.           interrupted.
  83.  
  84.  
  85.           In mode 1  Data tap, you must use the special cable tap
  86.           (or equivalent) which is provided to registered users.
  87.           Simply connect the cable to the ports you wish to test and
  88.           run the Data Analyzer software.
  89.  
  90.  
  91.           In mode 2  Online mode, simply connect a standard cable to
  92.           the port you wish to test and run the Data Analyzer
  93.           software.
