Logic Analyzer Reference
The RS-232-C, GPIB, and Centronics Interfaces
LAN Port
There are two ports for connecting the logic analyzer to LAN. The LAN
TP port is for a twisted pair network, sometimes known as ethertwist
or 10Base-T. The LAN BNC port is for a coaxial cable network,
sometimes know as thinlan or 10Base2. The LAN Port field toggles
between these two ports. Select the field that matches your LAN
network and the back-panel connector you are using.
Analyzer IP Address
This is the IP address that the logic analyzer will respond to, and must
be unique on the network. If you need to create and IP address, contact
your system administrator. Enter the analyzer address in this field.
Gateway IP Address
The gateway IP address is only necessary if the host computer and
logic analyzer are on different subnets. Use the address of the gateway
nearest the logic analyzer between the analyzer and the host. Your
system administrator should be able to provide this information.
File Timeout
The file timeout is the amount of time the logic analyzer will keep a file
in memory. If you are transferring 1 M of data, the file timeout must be
larger than if you are transferring 64 K of data. The file timeout can
also affect the network timeout. Generally, 1.5 seconds is a good value.
Analyzer name
You can assign an analyzer name to the logic analyzer. It does not have
to be the same as the IP alias, although you could set it to that. This
name shows up in the X Window title bar and in ASCII files created by
the analyzer.
