packets, but it does not know at which speed the packet has been sent or how many bytes it consists of.
If you see the Monitor or Recorder detecting these packets, you can take a look at the topology view in
the Commander to find the problem.
3.4. Command Line Options
Since the 3.3.0 release the FireDiagnostics Suite supports a number of command line options. These
command line options make it possible to select an analyzer by its serial number, start the
Scriptor with
the provided script, open a recording or start the Scriptor directly. To quickly view which options are
supported, enter the command: FireSpyApp.exe -h (or use /? for the same result). This will show a
message with an overview of the supported arguments:
·
'-h' or '/?' shows the command line help.
· '-d <SERIALNUMBER>' is used when multiple analyzers are connected to the computer, and a specific
device should be opened.
· filename; when a filename is provided to the application, it recognizes the extension and opens the
associated module, For example: FireSpyApp recording.fss starts the
Scriptor because the .fss
extension is associated with the Scriptor . Multiple files may be supplied, separated by spaces.
·
'-r start' or '--recorder start', starts the Recorder .
·
'-r export' or '--recorder export', opens up the Recorder 's export dialog. If an export script and recording
file are specified, the application will export the recording and terminate afterwards.
· '-g start' or '--generator start', starts the Generator . Use this command in combination with a generator
file to load and start the Generator .
· '-s start' or '--scriptor start', in combination with a supplied script, will load the script into the scriptor and
run instantly.
·
'-n' or '--noFireSpy' starts the application without opening a device. This is useful when you only have
one analyzer connected and want to view or edit files without interfering with it.
3.5. FireSpy Standalone Tools
In addition to the main FireSpy application with all main FireSpy modules embedded there is also a way to
start each module as a standalone application. These standalone versions can be started through the
Windows start menu and then navigating to "All Programs", "FireDiagnostics Suite X.X" and then "FireSpy
Standalone Tools". The picture below shows where to find the standalone versions.
