Event Table view
The Event Table view displays the raw events in table form. When you select an area of the Overview graph, the Event Table view updates to reflect the chosen data.
With this view, you can see every kernel event that occurred during the trace period and the exact order of the events. Because a trace has a large number of events (even in relatively short traces), you may want to use filtering to show only certain events and areas of interest.
Opening the view
Event Table is one of the dashboard views in the System Profiler.
To open the view:
- Click QNX SYSTEM PROFILER, then select a .kev file.
- Click DASHBOARDS > Event Table. The Event Table view is displayed:
Column | Description |

Event | Event number. |
Time (ns) | Timestamp when the event occurred in nanoseconds. |
Owner | Owner of the event. |

For more information about events, go to Classes and events

Filtering the view
You can filter each column of the Event Table view.
