+<h2>Decoding binary traces with a Dictionary file</h2>
+<p>To activate and deactivate binary traces that are in the Open
+System Trace (OST) format, you must first define the used <i>Dictionary file
+</i> for the component that is outputting the traces. Dictionary files are
+in XML and are usually available in your development environment. They are
+automatically re-generated everytime you compile a component that contains
+OST traces.</p>
+<p>You can open a Dictionary file to be used for decoding
+binary traces, based on a decode model.</p>
+<p>To open a Dictionary file: </p>
+<ol>
+<li>On the TraceViewer menu, select <b>Trace Activation</b>. </li>
+<li>In the <b>Activation</b> dialog, click <b>Add Dictionary</b>.</li>
+<li>In the <b>Open file</b> dialog, choose one or more decode files from the
+file system. <p>By default, these files are located in the <i>\epoc32\ost_dictionaries</i> directory, and named <i>[componentname]_uid_dictionary.xml</i><br>
+<b>Note</b>: You can also load a ZIP file containing one or more Dictionary files.
+</li>
+<li>Click <b>OK</b>. <p>TraceViewer will load the chosen files to the decoding
+model and decode the traces currently in the view.</p> </li>
+</ol>
