• In the Progress Indicator, a black vertical line illustrates the location of the
Trigger Position you selected in Recording Options.
— Pre-Trigger progress is displayed in the field to the left of the Trigger
Position in the before-Trigger color specified in the Display Options.
— When the Trigger Position is reached, the progress indicator wiggles as it
waits for the trigger.
— After the trigger occurs, the field to the right of the Trigger Position fills
in the post-Trigger color specified in the Display Options.
— When recording is complete, the upper half of the progress indicator fills
in white, indicating the progress of the data upload to the host computer.
You should be aware of two exceptional conditions:
• If a Trigger Event occurs during the before-Trigger recording, the
before-Trigger color changes to the after-Trigger color to indicate that not all
the expected data was recorded pre-Trigger.
• When you click Stop before or after a Trigger Event, the Progress Bar adjusts
accordingly to begin uploading the most recently recorded data.
The Progress Bar fills with color in proportion to the specified size and
actual rate at which the hardware is writing and reading the recording
memory. However, the Progress Indicator is normalized to fill the space
within the Status Bar.
Recording Status
During recording activity, the current Recording Status is temporarily
displayed in the next segment. When you activate the Record function, this
segment flashes one of the following messages (depending on the selected
Recording Options):
— Trigger?
— Triggered!
— Uploading
After recording stops,
— The flashing message changes to Uploading data–x% done (x%
indicates the percentage completion of the data uploading process).
— The traffic data is copied to disk (overwriting any previous version of this
file) using the default file name data.tfb or a new name specified in the
Recording options.
To abort the upload process,
Click in the Tool Bar.
You are prompted to choose whether to keep the partially uploaded data or to
throw it away.
