When the Trace is enabled, the HEX values of input messages to the interface (whether it is XPort,
Serial or Echelon), and output messages from the interface are displayed. An ASCII representation
of the printable characters is also displayed within the trace.
The tracing of Ethernet results in the trace being sent only out the serial interface. If a Telnet
session is running, the trace information will not be sent to the Telnet screen. Because a deadly
loop would result, the WAG will not allow tracing of the Ethernet interface to be sent out the
Ethernet interface.
To Trace an Echelon Interface:
The tracing of Echelon information will go out both the serial interface and to a Telnet session if
one is running.
Type
trace E
and then press Enter. The Echelon information begins as follows:
trace E
Echelon activity will trace to serial port and Telnet
To Trace a Serial Interface:
The tracing of Serial information will only be sent to an existing Telnet connection. Because a
deadly loop would result, the WAG will not send trace serial information out the serial interface.
Type
trace S
and then press Enter. The Serial information begins as follows:
Trace S
Serial activity will trace to a Telnet session
To Trace a Persistent TCP Serial Tunnel to Event Log:
The Trace a Persistent TCP Serial Tunnel to Event Log option is for debugging purposes.
