Data Browser is tool which helps to analyse network traffic and recognize some data packets
which are passing through. The applications use more or less standardized protocols and any
data could be classified by type and sender.
You should choose UDP port that you want to trace and press Listen. The most useful are
ports 8001 (most of data from Sensor Monitor to ECDIS, ARPA and VDR), 6606 (most data from
ECDIS to Sensor Monitor), 4101 (ECDIS internal change port).
If you need you can record (log) caught data. Press Record button, choose log path and name
and keep button pressed for a while, then release and you can use log file. Warning: This
button is visible only when Data Browser is listening.
As you can see Data Browser shows for each sender its IP address and list of packet types
received from there. For each packed type are present name of type, program-sender
(because different program could send packets from the same IP), summary number of bytes
and number of packets received in packets certain type for certain program and certain IP
address and last reception type.
It is fully identical to competing menu item Run from Start menu of Windows. The standard
Windows Run dialog opens.
Application Manager will open special Windows folder called "Administrative Tools" using
File Browser (see above). You can work with shortcuts located in that folder on the same way
like any other folder.
