Load console session tool
The Load console session tool allows you to load a saved API or AT console session to review the recorded API frames or data. You can load a session saved directly from the frames/packets log of the console or a session generated using the recording feature.
To open the Load console session tool, select Load console session from the Tools drop-down menu on the main XCTU toolbar.
Console session viewer dialog
The Console session viewer dialog is where you can load a saved API or AT console session. For instructions, see Load a console session.
If the console session file successfully loads, the tool displays three new controls inside the Console session viewer:
Radio module information box
The radio module information box displays information about the radio module used in the session.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Icon | Represents the protocol of the radio module |
| Record date | The date the console session was saved |
| Module ID | The name or identifier of the radio module |
| Module address | The physical (MAC) address of the device |
| Firmware function | The function of the firmware running in the radio module |
| Firmware version | The version of the firmware running in the radio module |
| Port configuration | The radio module port statistics from the session |
Note If the session you attempt to load corresponds to a Serial console session, the Radio module information box displays only the Record date and Port configuration fields.
Console session control
The console session control varies depending on the type of console session. If the saved console session is an AT (transparent) or Serial session, the control is the same as the one in the Data traffic monitoring section of the AT or Serial consoles. In other words, it is a data text box with the hexadecimal representation of the data.
If the saved console session is an API session, XCTU displays an API frames table with an API frame details view attached on the right side. This is the same control as the one in the API frames traffic monitoring section of the API Console.
Regardless of the control displayed, you can only review the session data; any other functionality with the controls is disabled in this tool.
Session data splitting
If the data to be loaded is too long for XCTU to display all at once, the data is split into blocks of bytes (when the session is an AT or Serial session) or blocks of frames (when the session is an API session). Depending on which console you used to save the session, XCTU displays a Frames log viewer (API) or a Console log viewer (AT and Serial Console).
Note You can also use the console session scroll bar to load the next and previous blocks of data. The next block of data loads automatically when you scroll to the bottom of the control and scroll down again.
