4.2 Making a Recording

During a recording session, FireInspector monitors and records bus activity according to the
specifications set by the user. When the session ends, FireInspector decodes the data,
uploads it to the PC, and displays the recorded packets and related information as a CATC
Trace file.

4.2.1 Recording

To record bus traffic:

Step 1

Set up recording options or load a recording options file.

Step 2

Select Record > Start from the menu bar or press the Record

button on

the standard toolbar.

Before recording starts, FireInspector checks to see whether there is
enough space on the current hard drive to save data and alerts you if there
is not enough space.

The recording session will run according to the specified recording
options.

Recording status is tracked and reported on an activity meter on the status
bar.

Step 3

(Optional) Press the Trigger button on the front of the analyzer to force a
trigger event to occur. This is possible only when the Recording Type is set
to Event or Manual on the General tab of the Recording Options dialog.

Step 4

Select Record > Stop from the menu bar, press the Stop

button on the

standard toolbar, or press the Escape (Esc) key on the keyboard to manually
stop the recording session. This step is optional if the Recording Type is set
to Event or Manual on the General tab of the Recording Options dialog.
