Acquisition Control Field
The Acquisition Control field accesses an Acquisition Control menu from
which you can set the acquisition mode and trigger position within available
memory. In a state analyzer you can set whether or not the data that causes a
branch to be taken is stored into memory. In a timing analyzer, you can set
the sample period.
In a state analyzer, the acquisition control settings are imposed on the
qualified data after the trigger has occurred. Depending on what data is
qualified in the sequence levels and when the trigger occurred, the additional
data qualifying by the acquisition control will result in more efficient use of
available memory.
Five control fields accessed are from the acquisition control menu:
•
Acquisition Mode Field
•
Trigger Position Field
•
Memory Length
•
Reference Clock
•
Sample Period (Timing only) or Branches Taken (State and State
Compare)
