Introduction to Timing Analysis

Change a Label Name

Change a Label Name

Labels group channels together. You can rename a label to make it more meaningful. For example, you could use the label name DATA for all of the channels that are connected to the data bus of a microprocessor.

In this exercise, you will change a label name to TCOUNT to represent the timing count data captured from the 8-bit ripple counter on the training board. The counter counts from 0 to 255 (0 to FF in hex) repetitively.

1Press the Format MENU key.

2Use the arrow keys (⇑ ⇓ ⇐ ⇒) to highlight Lab1.

3Type TCOUNT using the keypad on the front panel of the analyzer.

You can use the knob or the left and right arrow keys to backspace the cursor if you need to correct a typing error.

4Press the Done key.
