A new sequence of files is created with each recording.
Later, a trace file can be used for playback of the recorded CAN
messages on the CAN bus (see following section 5.2 on page 29).
As an alternative, it is possible to convert the recording on a PC to
another format for further use and for evaluation (see section 5.3 on
page 30).
Note:
A filter may be applied to incoming CAN traffic which
allows only CAN messages with specific IDs to pass through.
See chapter 5.4 on page 32 for details about filtering.
