To use SPI triggering
To use SPI triggering
Serial Protocol Interface (SPI) trigger setup consists of connecting the
oscilloscope to a clock, data, and framing signal. You can then trigger on a data
pattern during a specific framing period. The serial data string can be specified
to be from 4 to 32 bits long.
When you press the Settings softkey, a graphic will be displayed showing the
current state of the frame signal, clock slope, number of data bits, and data bit
values. Press the Signals softkey in the Settings menu to see the current source
channels for the clock, data, and frame signals.
•Press the More key in the Trigger section of the front panel, rotate the
Entry knob until
SPI is displayed in the Trigger softkey, then press the
Settings softkey to display the SPI trigger menu.
