5.9.12 Loading Trace Information from Files
To load trace information from a file, choose File -> Load from the popup menu or click on the Load toolbar button [
].
Specify a trace information file that was saved in the binary format. The current results of tracing are overwritten.
Before loading a file saved in the binary format, switch to the trace mode in which the saved trace information was acquired.
This switching should be performed in the Trace conditions dialog box that is displayed when you choose Acquisition from the
popup menu of the Trace window.
If the current trace mode differs from that in which the saved information was acquired, an error occurs. Trace information
files saved in the text format cannot be loaded back into the Trace window.
5.9.13 Temporarily Stopping Trace Acquisition
To temporarily stop the acquisition of trace information during user program execution, choose Trace -> Stop from the popup
menu of the Trace window or click on the Stop toolbar button [
].
Trace acquisition will be stopped, with the trace display updated. Use this function when you only want to stop acquisition and
check the trace information but not to stop program execution.
5.9.14 Restarting Trace Acquisition
If you want to restart trace acquisition after it has temporarily been stopped during user program execution, choose Trace ->
Restart from the popup menu of the Trace window or click on the Restart toolbar button [
].
5.9.15 Switching the Timestamp Display
The display of timestamps in the Trace window can be switched to absolute time, differential time or relative time. In the
initial state, the timestamps are displayed in absolute time.
(1) Absolute time
Choose Time -> Absolute Time from the popup menu or click on the Absolute Time toolbar button [
]. The displayed
timestamps will be displayed in absolute time since the program started running.
(2) Differential time
Choose Time -> Differences from the popup menu or click on the Differences toolbar button [
]. Each displayed timestamp
is the difference in time from the preceding cycle.
(3) Relative time
Choose Time -> Relative Time from the popup menu or click on the Relative Time toolbar button [
]. The displayed
timestamps are times relative to the time of a specified cycle.
