7 Viewing Protocol
Exchanges in Real Time
Using SMP Trace, you can view a continuous stream of protocol exchanges between the SMP
and the substation devices, or between the SMP Gateway and the control center.
At this stage, however, since you have only configured master protocol instances, you will only
see the protocol exchanges that take place between the SMP Gateway and the substation devices.
You can have the information displayed in UTC or local time, highlight the lines that contain
specific keywords, and you can clear the current display. SMP Trace can generate a continuous
log of all
the events you are tracing, to a text file on your PC. It can also print or save to a text file,
a snapshot of the traced events that occurred since the last time you cleared the display.
To start SMP Trace and view the protocol exchanges:
Click your SMP Gateway in the SMP Manager application window.
In the Tools menu, click SMP Trace.
7.1 Information Provided by SMP Trace
SMP Trace starts up and displays the list of available traces.
In the left pane, select the item for which you want to view the protocol exchanges.
If you click a folder, everything within the folder is automatically selected.
