To set the memory length

The 1670G-series logic analyzer’s memory length can be adjusted. The

table on the following page shows the amount of memory available for

different modes of operation.

Typically you will want to use small amounts of memory at the

beginning of troubleshooting, when you are first looking for a problem,

and use deep memory when you are searching for the root cause.

Shallower memory provides faster acquisitions, but might not have

sufficient context. Deep memory provides more context, but takes

longer to fill, more time to display, and more time for you to analyze.

The Memory Length field allows you to configure the acquisition

memory to suit your needs.

The Acquisition Control menu pops up. If the acquisition mode is set to

Automatic, the menu contains two fields and an explanation. If

Acquisition has been customized, it has four or five fields and a picture

showing the amount of memory and where the trigger is currently

placed in memory.

Use the knob to select the memory length. Memory size can be set in

powers of 2 from 4096 to the maximum. The table below shows the

maximum memory for various modes of operation.
