USB Presenter Capture

Access restrictions were established for this page. If you see this message, you have no access to this page.

This page describes how the Allegro Network Multimeter allows to start a capture with a USB presenter. This capture can be done back in time for a defined period. In addition, the capture files can be uploaded to an sftp server at a defined time.

This feature has been designed to allow non-IT staff to record pcaps at when an error happens it also allows to do captures without opening the web interface.

Requirements

This feature is supported by all Allegro Network Multimeters, even for the VM Version starting at firmware version 3.0. It requires a free USB port on the Allegro with USB 2.0 or higher.

As of now, the Logitech R400 is supported. Allegro will add more presenter on request.

Setup

Please connect the Logitech R400 USB dongle with the Allegro. If you have a virtual Allegro, please pass-through the USB device directly to the Allegro VM.

Once this is done, navigate to the Settings -> Expert Settings page and open the USB capture trigger.
