4.7 Status Bar
The Status Bar is a gray bar that runs along the bottom of the application window.
From left to right:
PETracer SN:309: Analyzer Serial Number
Ready: Analyzer Status
Recording Progress Bar: The colored bar to the right of the serial number represents 
how much traffic has been recorded. The trigger point is indicated by the black line at the 
left side of the bar. In this example, the trigger occurred at the very beginning of the CATC 
Trace. If the trigger is set in the middle of the CATC Trace, the line is positioned in the 
middle of the bar. Additionally, the color of the bar is different on each side of the trigger 
point. For examples, see “Recording Progress Bar” on page 35. The white strip along the 
top edge of the color bar indicates how much traffic has been uploaded from the Analyzer 
buffer to the host machine. 
Uploading and 20%: Indicates the Analyzer's recording status, what part of the 
recording process the Analyzer is now in. In this example, the Analyzer is in the upload 
stage and has completed 20% of the upload from the Analyzer to the host machine. See 
“Recording Status” on page 35 for details on other status messages.
Activity: The colored bar moves to indicate that the Analyzer is currently recording.
Search: Fwd: Indicates search direction. The direction can be toggled to Search: Bwd 
by double-clicking the search direction or by selecting Search Direction from the Search 
menu.
