Chapter 3: Using the Logic Analyzer in Timing or State Mode

Setting Up Triggers and Running Measurements

To insert a timer event

Timer events are like other events in that they evaluate to either true or false.

1.In the Trigger tab's Trigger Sequence area, select one of the existing event buttons (for example, a label name, Anything, Timer, Counter, or Flag) and choose to insert or replace a Timer.

2.Select the timer number button and choose the number of the timer you want to test.

3.Select the operator button and choose either >= or <.

4.Enter the time value.

The minimum value you can test a timer for depends on the timing/state analyzer configuration.
