TRACE 1.10.2 Beta

Free Windows desktop application to monitor, record, and replay Allen Bradley
PLC signals over EtherNet/IP, with Chain Map diagnostics, a connector pinout
reference, and a built-in simulation mode for practicing without a PLC.

What changed since 1.10.1 Beta

Fixes to the Manage PLCs / Monitor interaction:

  • New PLCs now start disabled instead of enabled by default.
  • The status dot is retested on a recurring background poll instead of
    only once at the moment a PLC is enabled, so a connection that later
    drops or comes back is reflected (and logged) without the user having
    to touch anything.
  • Deleting a PLC while one of its tags was being monitored live used to
    have no effect at all the reader kept running, and readding a PLC
    under the same name never reconnected anything. Both are fixed, and a
    panel now shows a visible "Signal(s) frozen PLC unavailable"
    indicator (not just a log line) when this happens.

TRACE is developed and distributed by Wilmer Ramirez Gutierrez, an
independent software developer, under the Siganor name.

Before you install

  • This build is unsigned. Windows SmartScreen will very likely warn that
    this is an "unrecognized app" expected for an unsigned build from a small
    independent publisher. Do not disable SmartScreen or Defender to get past
    it; if that's not acceptable to you, don't proceed. The installer also
    shows this notice as its own page before installing.
  • This is Beta software. Validate results independently before using
    them to make decisions about equipment or production. TRACE is not a
    safety system or a replacement for approved engineering procedures.
    Simulation mode is for practice, not a substitute for validating real
    behavior.
  • Per user install, no admin rights required (%LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\TRACE).
    Your data lives under %LOCALAPPDATA%\TRACE and is not touched by
    uninstalling.
  • The installer's license page shows EULA.md. Some fields in it (Licensor
    address, governing jurisdiction, liability cap amount) are still open
    flagging this openly rather than leaving it unsaid.
