6.4.2 Importing Capture Files
1. From the
Control
window
, go to the
File
menu and select Open Capture File or click on the Open
icon on the toolbar.
2. Left of the
File name
text box, select from the drop-down list
Supported File Types
box to
All
Importable File Types
or
All Supported File Types (*.cfa, *.log, *.txt, *.csv, *.cap)
. Select the file
and click
Open
.
The analyzer automatically converts the file to the analyzer's format while keeping the original file in its original
format. You can
in the analyzer's format, close the file without saving it in the analyzer's format, or
have the analyzer automatically save the file in the analyzer's format (see the
to set this option).
All of these options keep your original file untouched.
When you first open the file, the analyzer brings up the
window and ask you what protocol
decodes, if any, you want to use. You must choose a protocol decode at this point for the analyzer to decode the
data in the file. If you open a file without using any decodes, and decide later that you want to apply a decode,
choose
from the File menu on the Control window.
At present, the analyzer supports the following file types:
l
Frontline Serialtest* Async and Serialtest ComProbe
®
for DOS – requires the .byt for data and the .tim for
timestamps (see note on importing
).
l
Greenleaf ViewComm* 3.0 for DOS - requires the .byt for data and the .tim for timestamps (see note on
importing
).
l
Frontline Ethertest* for DOS – requires 3 files: filename.cap, filename.ca0 and filename.ca1.
l

6.5 Printing
6.5.1 Printing from the Frame Display/HTML Export
The
Frame Display Print
dialog and the
Frame Display HTML Export
are very similar. This topic discusses
both dialogs.
Frame Display Print
The
Frame Display Print
feature provides the user with the option to print the capture buffer or the current
selection. The maximum file size, however, that can be exported is 1000 frames.
When
Print Preview
is selected, the output displays in a browser print preview window, where the user can
select from the standard print options. The output file format is in html, and uses the Microsoft Web Browser
Control print options for background colors and images.
