4.7 Trace Functions
The current trace status is shown in parentheses in the Trace Function option in the
Freeway Interactive Menu. To access the Trace Functions menu as shown in
Figure 4–30, enter ‘4’ at the Freeway Interactive Menu.
Enter ‘2’ to turn trace on. Freeway then saves messages moving to and from the client in
a circular buffer. When trace data fills the buffer, the oldest trace data is overwritten
with new trace data.
Enter ‘3’ to turn trace off, then enter ‘4’ to process the trace data. The messages in the
trace buffer are in binary form to save space. The messages are converted to ASCII
before being written to the Freeway disk drive or boot server.
When you select Process Trace Data, you are prompted for the trace level, (1) TSI or (2)
DLI. The difference between the two levels is what information is included in the trace
as follows:
