In the Folder box, type the path to a folder that the Tariscope Observer service will scan to collect CDR.
In the File mask box, type a pattern to select files from the folder. For example, if you wish to choose only files with CDR extension, type: *.cdr By default, the * pattern is set. It means that Tariscope Observer will process all files from the folder.
In the Last date calendar box, select the date and time from which the scan of the folders is started. The date and time of the last scan will be displayed in the calendar list when the service is working.
In the Interval box, specify the scan period. The value in the box is specified in the following format: hh:mm:ss, where hh = hours, mm = minutes, ss = seconds.
If the selected folder contains subfolders and it is required to scan them, turn on the Scan subfolders switch.
In case when other programs can have access to files that are handled by Tariscope, to avoid a long absence of access to these files, turn on the Minimize file lock time switch.
If the processed data is taken from a file in which the telephone system constantly adds information, turn on the Remember last files positions switch.
If you wish to delete the files from the folder after theirs processing, turn on the Delete file after processing switch.
Because Tariscope processes only file rows that contain CR at the row end and some PBXs do not add CR to the end of file, to process the last row of such file, turn on the Add CR to the end of each file switch.
When the CDR format does not contain information about the year of the calls, turn on the Steam file attributes to parser switch. In this case the information about year will get from attributes of the processing file.
Click on the Done button to save settings.
