The monitor page is the operational log and debug page for Pi-Sat.
Related pages:
The monitor page shows the most recent backend events that matter to operating and troubleshooting.
Typical entries include:
- TLE refresh attempts
- TLE refresh success or failure
- transponder refresh attempts
- transponder refresh success or failure
- automation script execution logs
- device test results
- radio, SDR, and rotator warnings
- backend errors
The left side of the page provides debug toggles for the most common control paths:
- General debug logging
- RX CAT debug logging
- TX CAT debug logging
- Rotator debug logging
These controls make it easier to narrow the log stream to the part of the station you are actually troubleshooting.
The monitor page gives the operator immediate visibility into what the backend is doing without forcing a shell session for every question.
This is useful when:
- passes are missing
- a TLE source is failing
- a profile refresh did not behave as expected
- a device test failed
- an automation script did not run as expected
- a radio or rotator path is timing out or reconnecting
Use the monitor page when the GUI does not match your expectations and you need to know whether the backend:
- refreshed data
- failed to refresh data
- ran an automation script
- saw a device or control issue
- generated a useful warning or error
The monitor page is a recent operational log view, not a full long-term archive.
