4.13 Saving CATC Trace Files
This section describes how to save a CATC trace file.
4.13.1 Using the Save As Function
When you record a CATC Trace file, the Analyzer software provides a pre‐defined name to
the CATC Trace file (data.pex or any other that you specified in the Recording Options). If
you do consecutive recordings, each time the previous recording is overwritten. If you see
a recording you want to analyze later, you need to give a unique name to the CATC Trace
file, so it is not overwritten with the next recording.
Also, when you analyze a recorded CATC Trace file, you might be interested in preserving
just a part of the PCI Express traffic that was recorded. If you save a portion of a CATC
Trace file, it can get significantly smaller, allowing you to attach it to an e‐mail.
To save a portion of a CATC Trace file or the whole file to a unique name, select Save As
from the File menu (see
Figure 4.11 on page 42 ).
