Trace Log
ClockWatch includes a detailed trace mode that gives detailed information about connection and communication information useful in debugging communication problems. You can run ClockWatch in the trace mode which provides a detailed log to pinpoint problems by simply adding the debug option to the command line when starting ClockWatch.
The following steps will run ClockWatch in the trace mode and allow you to view the trace log file, DebugFile.txt.
1.Run ClockWatch in diagnostic mode by running ClockWatch with the debug option. Usually:
"C:\Program Files\Beagle Software\ClockWatch\ClockWatch.exe" debug
2. Run the problem till the connection fails or problem occurs. Exit ClockWatch.
3. View the diagnostic trace, DebugFile.txt, usually in the main ClockWatch directory:
C:\Program Files\Beagle Software\ClockWatch\DebugFile.txt
4. Check for "ERRORS" or connection problems in the trace.
5. ClockWatch support personnel can provide detailed analysis of the trace.
