7.8 Initiating a Recording
A recording can be initiated using the GUI, API, CLI, or Web Control Interface.
The Web Control Interface is a browser-based remote capture feature (see
Section 7.14, Using the Web Control
Interface).
For more information on the Remote API or CLI, see
Section 26, Remote API and CLI
.
To initiate a recording (GUI):
1. Click on Record on the toolbar or alternatively, select Record | Start Recording (Ctrl+R)
from the
menu.
Recording is initiated per settings in the Record | Recording Options menu.
7.9 Stopping a Recording
A recording can be stopped using the GUI, API, CLI, or Web Control Interface.
To stop a recording (GUI):
1. Click on Stop on the toolbar or alternatively, select Record | Stop Recording
(Ctrl+Shift+R) from the menu.
The recording is stopped. Any traffic remaining in the analyzer’s memory is uploaded to the PC hosting the
analyzer application.
Clicking the Stop button a second time cancels the upload of any remaining
traffic still located on the analyzer’s memory.
7.10 Restarting a Recording
A recording in progress can be restarted using the GUI, API, CLI, or Web Control Interface. The analyzer will
stop capturing new data, the data already captured will be discarded, a new capture will be created, and the
analyzer recording will be started again.
To restart a recording (GUI):
1. Click on Restart
on the toolbar or alternatively, select Record | Restart Recording from
the menu. The capture in progress is halted, traffic captured is discarded, and a new recording is
initiated.
7.11 Using the Auto-Segmentation Feature
The analyzer application provides an automatic method to restart and save successive captures based on a
specified period and/or the number of bytes captured. Bluetooth contextual information, such as connection
parameters, are maintained from capture to capture. This feature can be quite useful for reducing one long
capture into several smaller, more manageable captures, and can provide extremely long capture duration.
