PETracer™ ML™ or PETrainer™ ML™ is a factory-installed hardware module that is
sold as part of the Universal Protocol Analyzer System™ 10000 (UPAS™ 10K).
The UPAS 10K, UPAS 100K, modules, and associated software are easily installed. You
can begin making PCI Express™ recordings or begin traffic generation after following the
steps in this chapter.
3.1 Installing the PETracer Software
PETracer software operates all of Teledyne LeCroy’s PCI Express protocol Analyzer and
Exerciser products:
The PETracer software is installed on a Microsoft
®
Windows

-based host machine and
serves as the interface for the Exerciser and/or Analyzer. When an Exerciser is attached,
traffic generation features are enabled.
After the Analyzer or Exerciser has been recognized as a USB device, install the
PETracer software on the host machine:
Step 1 Insert the CD into the CD ROM drive of the host machine that controls
the Analyzer or Exerciser. The installation window opens and displays
links to the PETracer software, user manuals, a readme file, and Acrobat
Reader.
Step 2 Select Install Software and follow the on-screen instructions.
The PETracer software installs automatically on the host machine’s hard disk.
During installation, all necessary USB drivers are loaded automatically. Drivers
included in the installation are:
•
ctcupa10.sys: UPAS 10K driver
•
petrcrml.sys: PETracer ML driver
•
