This article explains multiple functionality specs of a Monitor in Paragon Active Assurance.

• Start/Stop button: Click to start the monitor if it is not currently running, or conversely to stop the monitor if it is being executed.
• Edit button: Edit the monitor in the monitor builder. A monitor can be edited even if it is running. After you save changes to the monitor, it will continue to execute but now using the new setup. Note, however, that data from any parts of the monitor that you abandon is lost and cannot be recovered later on. For example, if the monitor originally targeted three IPTV channels and you drop one of them, the data collected for that channel is lost. It is a good idea to export monitoring data collected so far before you edit a monitor; see Export button below.
• Clone button: Create a copy of this monitor. You are taken to the monitor builder with the settings of this monitor filled in.
• Report button: Generate a report on the execution of this monitor. See the page Reports on tests and monitors.
• Export button: Export monitoring results in comma-separated format. Again, see the page Reports on tests and monitors for details.
• Delete button: Clicking this button will delete the monitor.
