8.5 Link Tracker

The Link Tracker window displays a detailed chronological view of events. Events are
shown on a channel-by-channel basis in columns within the window.

Each time slot in the vertical axis represents the minimum time that a DWORD requires
to traverse the bus.

Toolbar: Presents buttons for changing the format of the Link Tracker window.

Main Display Area: Displays traffic chronologically as it occurred in the recording. The
window divides into columns: the first column shows time and traffic is shown on a
channel-by-channel basis in the columns on the right.

Using the Link Tracker Window

The Link Tracker window can be reformatted in several ways.

Zooming In and Out

Zooming out can give you a quick, high-level view of a CATC Trace. A fully zoomed out
CATC Trace only shows columns and colored lines. Using the colors, you can see what
types of traffic run through the CATC Trace.

Further information can be obtained on any point of interest in the CATC Trace by
positioning your mouse pointer over it. Tool tips provide detailed description of events.
