To import label names and assignments from a netlist

You can create label names and assign logic analyzer probe channels by importing netlists. These netlists come from the Electronic Design Automation (EDA) tools used to design the device under test, and they contain information about the signals on the connectors built into the device under test for the E5378A, E5379A, or E5380A probes for the 16760A logic analyzer.

1. In the Format tab, select File from the menu; then, select the Import

Netlist... menu item.

2. Read the information and follow the instructions in the Import Netlist wizard's dialogs.

Select Next -->to go to the next dialog, <-- Prev to go to the previous dialog, Cancel to exit the wizard, or Done to complete the netlist import.

	The E5378A and E5380A probes require two logic analyzer pods, and
	the E5379A probe requires one logic analyzer pod. When mapping
	connector names to logic analyzer pods in the Import Netlist wizard,
	two pods must be assigned to the logic analyzer in order for the
	E5378A and E5380A probe types to be selectable.
	The E5379A probe is for differential signals where there are two
	connector pins (negative and positive) for each signal. The Import
	Netlist wizard will either merge the two net names or append "-/+"
	when creating label names to indicate that the labels are for differential
	signals.
	Multiple labels are automatically created for buses wider than 32-bits
	because 32 is the maximum number of channels that can be assigned to
	a label.
