The Format Menu
Use the Format menu to select which data channels are measured and
to set up the clocking arrangement to capture valid data. It allows you
to group and label the data channels from the system under test to fit
your particular measurement. In addition, for your convenience in
recognizing bit groupings, you can specify symbols to represent them.
If the analyzer is configured as a state analyzer, there are master and
slave clocks, clock qualifiers, and a variable clock setup and hold to
further qualify what data is captured. In addition, you can set
individual pod clock threshold levels. The Format menu contains the
following fields:
• State Acquisition Mode Field (State only)
• Timing Acquisition Mode Field (Timing only)
• Data on Clocks Display
• Pod Field
• Pod Clock Field
• Master and Slave Clock Field (State only)
• Setup/Hold Field (State only)
• Symbols Field
• Label Assignment Field
• Rolling Labels and Pods Field
• Label Polarity Fields
• Bit Assignment Fields
