Merlin II Protocol Analyzer User’s ManualCATC SW Version 2.30
To view two or three graphs simultaneously, click the Graph Areas button.
A menu opens with the following graph options:
• General Statistics
• Packet Occurrence (rate)
• Errors Occurrence (rate)
• Retransmissions - This graph shows the rate of retransmitted
packets. In the Real-Time Statistics, a packet is evaluated as
'retransmitted' if at least one non-FHS seqn bit has already been
received and if the previous sequence bit is the same as the
current sequence bit. As the sequence bit toggles on data
payloads carrying CRC, the Real-Time Statistics tracks the seqn
bits in DM, DV, DH payload, and checks for correctness only if
the payload was correctly decoded without errors.
