Search marks
The Search button allows you to automatically search through your long
acquisition looking for user-defined events. All occurrences of the event are
highlighted with search marks and are easily navigated to, using the front-
panel Previous (←) and Next (→) buttons. Search types include edge,
pulse width/glitch, timeout, runt, logic, setup and hold, rise/fall time, parallel
bus, and I2C, SPI, USB, Ethernet, CAN, LIN, FlexRay, RS-232/422/485/
UART, MIL-STD-1553, and I2S/LJ/RJ/TDM packet content.
Wave Inspector controls provide unprecedented efficiency in viewing, navigating, and
analyzing waveform data. Zip through your long record by turning the outer pan control
(1). Get details from the beginning to end in seconds. See something of interest and want
to see more details? Just turn the inner zoom control (2).
Zoom and pan
A dedicated, two-tier front-panel control provides intuitive control of both
zooming and panning. The inner control adjusts the zoom factor (or zoom
scale); turning it clockwise activates zoom and goes to progressively higher
zoom factors, while turning it counterclockwise results in lower zoom
factors and eventually turning zoom off. No longer do you need to navigate
through multiple menus to adjust your zoom view. The outer control pans
the zoom box across the waveform to quickly get to the portion of waveform
you are interested in. The outer control also utilizes force-feedback to
determine how fast to pan on the waveform. The farther you turn the outer
control, the faster the zoom box moves. Pan direction is changed by simply
turning the control the other way.
Search step 1: You define what you would like to find.
Play/Pause
A dedicated Play/Pause front-panel button scrolls the waveform across the
display automatically while you look for anomalies or an event of interest.
Playback speed and direction are controlled using the intuitive pan control.
Once again, turning the control further makes the waveform scroll faster
and changing direction is as simple as turning the control the other way.
User marks
Search step 2: Wave Inspector automatically searches through the record and marks
each event with a hollow white triangle. You can then use the Previous and Next buttons
to jump from one event to the next.
Press the Set Mark front-panel button to place one or more marks on the
waveform. Navigating between marks is as simple as pressing the
Previous (←) and Next (→) buttons on the front panel.
