The following sections describe the details per tab page of the Commander.
6.2.1. Topology
The 'Topology' page consists of a toolbar, the topology picture and optionally extra bus and node
information.
Toolbar
The toolbar has the following buttons:
Detailed view mode
This is a toggle button. When pressed, it enables the traditional, larger view mode. It also enables
additional information to be displayed with 'Select node display options'.
Select node display options
Pressing this button will display a dialog to select the node display options. It works the same as the
equivalent button in the toolbar of the Topology View of the Recorder.
Icons in nodes
This is a toggle button. When pressed, icons are displayed in the nodes. The Analyzer will use the file
icons.txt in the Analyzer\bin folder to look up the image using the EUI64 found in the node's bus info
block. The icons must be 32x32 pixel images in PNG, JPG or BMP format.
Port information
When this toggle button pressed, extra port capabilities and status information are displayed. If the mouse
is positioned over a port a tooltip with more detailed information pops up. The information is collected by
reading the PHY registers of the nodes.
Bus and node information
This is a toggle button. When this button is pressed, extra bus information and node information of the
selected node will be displayed. See the description of the same button in the Topology View of the
Recorder for more information.
Copy topology picture to clipboard
When this button is pressed, the current topology picture is copied to the clipboard.
Refresh view
When pressed, the topology picture will be refreshed. This is useful when topology changes that do not
cause a bus reset happen, such as a port suspending.
Initiate Bus Reset
Pressing this button will generate a bus reset and the topology picture will be refreshed if needed.
