I have written a python script that enables you to view Tektronix .rf5 files in ethereal. You still need access to the Tektronix hardware, but at least it is better than nothing...


 <<tekronix2pcap.py>> 

Tektronix2pcap ********************''

Description:
Convert a textfile created by Tektronix tool Rec2Ascii from a .rf5 file to pcap format using text2pcap.

Input: A text file created by Tektronix tool Rec2Ascii from a .rf5 file:

1. Start C:\K1297\bin\Rec2Ascii.exe on the same computer as the Tektronix is connected to (the software is protected by Hardlock).
2. Follow the instructions. Choose Hex view (and none of the other options) when asked about format.

Usage:
tektronix.py <infile> <outfile> where infile is created in step 2 above. Note that the path to text2pcap must be given  in the script.

Example:
tektronix.py infile.ascii outfile.pcap
