How to Select Menus

Note

Before you try to select one of the main menus, make sure the field in the upper left-hand corner is set to State/Timing E. If the HP 16500A is in System or Intermodule, touch that field and select State/Timing E when the pop-up appears.

The field containing State/Timing (x) may have a different letter following State/Timing. Don’t be alarmed. This letter merely tells you what card slot the State/Timing module is in.

To select the main menus touch the second field from the left at the top of the screen. A pop-up appears showing you the active menus. The menus are:

∙Configuration

∙Format 1, 2, or both

∙Trace 1, 2, or both

∙Waveform (Timing analyzer only)

∙Listing (State analyzer only)

When the menu is displayed you can access the fields within the menus. The second field from the left in the upper left-hand corner always displays the current menu. To move around in the menu tree, you must always touch the field displaying the current menu and select a new menu when the pop-up appears.

The Configuration, Format, Trace, Waveform, and Listing menu fields provide access to their respective menus. All menus, subsystems, and fields in the entire logic analyzer are pop-ups that appear on top of the currently displayed menu.

If more than one analyzer (machine) is on, you see the selected menu of either analyzer 1 or analyzer 2 depending on what analyzer menu was last displayed or what you did in the State/Timing E Configuration menu.

To switch from one of these menus to another menu within the same analyzer (machine) touch the current field (i.e. Waveform), which is displayed in the field second from the left in the upper left corner and make a new selection.
