available.

Timing
When you select Timing, the analyzer uses its own internal clock to clock
measurement data into the acquisition memory. This clock is asynchronous
to the signals in the target system. When this option is selected, some fields
specific to external clocks will not appear in the analyzer menus.
You can configure the machine with only one timing analyzer. If you select
both analyzers as timing analyzers, the first will be turned off.
State
When you select State, the analyzer uses a clock from the system under test
to clock measurement data into acquisition memory. This clock is
synchronous with the signals in the target system. You can configure both
analyzers as state analyzers. State mode does not allow you to access the
Compare menu.
State Compare
When State Compare is selected, the Compare menu is available in the main
menu selection. For more details on Compare, see chapter 9, "The Compare
Menu." State Compare mode functions much like State mode, except that
total memory is reduced by one-fourth.
