2.5.3.1 Load Now
Loads the currently selected file. Displayed settings include name, type, destination, and
path. While the file is being loaded a popup message is displayed “Loading file.” After a
successful load, the text message “xxxxxx file loaded” (where xxxxxx is the file name)
appears in the status line. When traces are loaded they always load in View mode.
Traces save in TRC format can be loaded individually or as a group. When a trace is
loaded, the state that existed when that trace was saved is loaded along with the trace.
Also, the loaded trace(s) is/are placed in view mode.
NOTE To compare two saved traces from different saves, place traces in view mode
before saving them. This prevents the trace from being rewritten based on a
state change from subsequent loads.
