Over-the-air packet capture session (SE Technical Support Use Only)
To assist with support, the radio can capture and record data packets being transmitted/received over the radio channel.
Reviewing this capture can help determine whether there is unwanted traffic being sent over the radio channel.
The packet capture files which are logged are encrypted and can only be reviewed by Schneider Electric technical support.
The use of this tool will generally be requested from the technical support team.
The over-the-air packet capture session can be accessed in the WUI by browsing to: Maintenance -> Advanced.
To start the packet capture process, press the ‘Start’ button. Once started a packet capture session will begin. Any existing
logs from a previous session will be cleared. A session will continue until the Stop button is selected.
To stop the packet capture session, press the ‘Stop’ button. Once the session has been stopped,, the captured log files will
appear. Log files are date and time stamped and can be downloaded by clicking on the file name link.
A log file’s size is limited to 1MB each, and a maximum of ten Logs can be stored per session. Once the maximum number of
logs has been reached, the session will continue by over-writing the oldest log.
As log files are stored within the local radio, over the air retrieval may take some time depending on channel bandwidth and
utilization (up to/and 1MB chunks for multiple files in session capture)
