2.3 Ghz Intel Core i7 8GB DDR3: Was running NetAdmin Pro which is monitoring my office LAN, processors consumption was at ~15 - 20%. Simultaneously I ran WiFI Explorer, 3.7% no more than 5% CPU usage. And I was updating Xcode to v 7.3.1 and was browsing and watching video from playground.ru
Watch the videos until half of it (20mins) the Video froze I moved the mouse and turned out the whole OSX is frozen.
littleSnitch v 3.7 has no reaction
I immediately pull the Ethernet adaptor and MacBook just went to black screen. I then switch off the wireless router. (My MacBook Pro is connected to the network via Ethernet adaptor and via WiFi router bearing different IP, I was thinking of cutting both network communication, in case it was an intrusion)
MacBook just restarted itself to login screen, after 15-20 sec of black screen and total silence)
I again restarted and booted into Recovery mode use disk utility. After completing disk check.
Login and previously opened programs resume back (NetAdmin Pro, WiFi Explorer, Yandex browser, Activity Monitor and AppStore)
AppStore doesn't resume the download everything else is functioning normally and in Addition I have got my calendar open after login (I did not launch accidental nor was it set to start with system login)
Question 1: Are there any way to know what was happening and what was OS El Capitan last reaction before it froze and rebooted?
Question 2: Are there any software better than "Console" v10.11 to interpret what was going on before it crashes?
P.S. Thank you in advance, I will try to upload the Console messages later from the MacBook Pro

Opensource.apple shows the following
- dsIllInstErr = 3, /illegal instruction error/
- dsChkErr = 5, /check trap error/
- userCanceledErr = -128
macwizard gave the following interpretation:
- 03 Illegal Instruction The computer has a specific vocabulary of machine language instructions it can understand. If a computer tries to execute an instruction that isn't in its vocabulary, you see this error code. It's less likely than error 02, but still very common.
- 05 Range Check Error Programmers can use an instruction in the Motorola 68000 to check if a number is within a certain range. This error indicates that the number tested isn't in the specified range.
- -128 userCanceledErr User canceled an operation
syslog | grep -i "shutdown cause"
and post the results. You can also run Apple Hardware Test (AHT). Hold down "D" while booting from a powered off state with AC adapter connected.
