A trace window with some records looks similar to the following:
A trace record contains the same nine columns of information whether it is written to a file or displayed in the trace window. As in the above example, it may be necessary to use the window scrollbars to see an entire record when it is reported to the display. You can view the trace file with any ASCII editor.
The following table describes the contents of trace record number 21 from the example above:
Field | Description |
---|---|
