To interleave trace lists

To interleave trace lists

1Set up the analyzers whose data you wish to interleave as part of a group run.

You won’t need to do this if the two measurement modules for which you want mixed display are really part of the same module. For example, you might have an HP 16550A state/timing analyzer configured as two separate analyzers, one a state analyzer, the other a timing analyzer. You can use mixed display to view the timing analyzer waveform with the trace lists from the state analyzer.

2Select the first state analyzer whose trace list will be shown in the interleaved display.

3Select Trigger from the menu field and set Count to Time.

The system uses the time stamps stored with each state to determine the ordering of states shown in an interleaved trace list.

4Repeat steps 2 and 3 for the second state analyzer.

5Select Listing Display from the Menu field.

6Select one of the label fields in the trace list display, then select Interleave.

7Select the name of the analyzer whose trace list will be interleaved with the first analyzer. Then choose the label that you want to interleave from the selected analyzer.

Interleaved data is displayed in yellow. Trace list line numbers of interleaved data are indented. The labels identifying the interleaved data are shown above the labels for the current analyzer, and are displayed in yellow.

If you have problems with the procedure, and you are using two independent analyzers, first ensure that the analyzers are set up as part of a group run. Ensure that each analyzer is set to Count Time and that each analyzer has an independent clock from the target system.

You can interleave trace lists from state analyzers that were configured as part of a group run or from state analyzers that are configured as separate analyzers within the same measurement module. In the first case, you might have two HP 16550A analyzers configured in a group run; in the second, you might have a single HP 16550A configured as two state analyzers. The interleaved trace lists are shown as a time-correlated, state-to-state display.
