14.6 Using the Trace of Passthrough Connection
Events
The bottom portion of the SMP Connect application window is used to display passthrough
connection event messages. It is quite useful to identify and solve passthrough connection
problems. It can also be configured to display all the data that is exchanged during a given
passthrough session. The whole trace can be printed or saved to a text file.
To display all exchanged data in SMP Connect’s trace pane:
 Before establishing a passthrough connection, in SMP Connect’s View menu, select Detail
Trace.
To print the current content of the trace pane:
 In SMP Connect’s View menu, select Print Preview, if you want to get a preview of the
printed trace, or Print if you want to print it directly.
To save the current content of the trace pane to a file:
 In SMP Connect’s View menu, select Save As.
 In the Save As dialog box, select the directory where you want to save the file and type the
file name.
 Click Save.
To clear the contents of the trace pane:
 In SMP Connect’s View menu, select Clear Trace.
