To open the Trace Monitor, use the NetMan Tools desktop shortcut or the shortcut in the Start menu under All Programs/H+H NetMan.

The main window shows messages indicating the status of internal processes:

With the initial (default) settings, on the left side of the main window, you see the Filterselection window. Trace messages are shown in the Output window on the right. What messages are shown, and in what form, depends on your selection of programs, modules, columns and output level. The Details window shows details on the selected item.

This table has the following columns:

No. No. Number of the entry in the current Trace Monitor document.

Date. The date on which the message was recorded.

Time. The time at which the message was recorded.

PID. Product identification number.

Product. Name of the program from which the message originated.

Module. Program module that sent the message.

Text. Contains the actual event message.

 

To configure which columns are displayed, open the “Field Chooser“. To highlight the entries in the output window select colors in the Color selection dialog. You see at a glance which modules sent which messages.
