Page 4: I. Overview
As the sampling memory could offer the sampling bandwidth that is extremely high, so the device could sample all the channels in high sampling rate. This series consists of LA5016 with the highest sampling rate of 500M, LA2016 with the sampling rate of 200M and LA1016, the sampling rate of which is 100M. -

Kingst Virtual Instruments User Guide www.qdkingst.com the data will be sent to the computer at the same time. The PC software compresses and the data and saves them in PC memories, and then it would restore the waveform and analyze it. As the data needs to be sent to the computer and saved in real time, so the bandwidth is limited to the USB2.0... - Page 6 Kingst Virtual Instruments User Guide www.qdkingst.com LA1000 Series： Product type LA1002 LA1010 Number of channels 100M@3CH, 50M@6CH Max sampling rate 24M@8CH 32M@9CH, 16M@16CH Measurement bandwidth 5MHz 20MHz Min detectable pulse width 80ns 20ns Input Max sampling depth 10G/channel 10G/channel Input voltage range...

Page 7: Ii. Brief Introduction To Kingst Vis
II. Brief introduction to Kingst VIS 1、 How to install software Kingst virtual instruments software Kingst VIS could be found in the attached CD, or downloaded from the web page: http://www.qdkingst.com/en/download. And the software package is something like KingstVIS_Setup_v2.0.0.exe (v2.0.0 represents the version). -
Page 8: Language Switch
3、 Language switch The Kingst VIS software could display in “English/简体中文”. If you want to change the language, please press the “Options” button in the top right corner, move the mouse to the menu item “Language”, and select the language. The selection would become effective after the software is restarted. - Page 9 Kingst Virtual Instruments User Guide www.qdkingst.com experience the device that you selected. After the “Simulate” button on the toolbar is pressed, the software would simulate the work process as the actual device exists. And the software would eventually display some square wave or pulse signals.

Page 10: Iii. Connect The Device
Kingst Virtual Instruments User Guide www.qdkingst.com III. Connect the device 1、 Connect the device to PC When the installation process is completed, the logic analyzer can be connected to PC through the attached USB cable (In case of desktop computer, use the USB port behind the tower box). -
Page 11: Multipoint Grounding To Increase Accuracy
Kingst Virtual Instruments User Guide www.qdkingst.com should be near the signal of system under test. The cable between the logic analyzer and the system under test should not be long, because long cables would result in heavy inductive effect and signal reflection. -
Page 12: Iv. Details Of Operations
The first combo box in the left side of Kingst VIS software toolbar is sampling depth, and second one is sampling rate. When we move the mouse on the dropdown options, the software will calculate the estimated sampling time, and shows it in the position of the mouse as a tool tip. -

Kingst Virtual Instruments User Guide www.qdkingst.com not be continuous, and the user can not tell when it would occur, such as UART communication. In this way, maybe we could not sample any effective data during the time since we pressed “start”. -
Page 14: Waveform Check And Operations
Kingst Virtual Instruments User Guide www.qdkingst.com it has got the sample points (sampling depth) required. It would upload the data to the computer. The software would restore the waveform and maybe measures or analyzes the data later. 4、 Waveform check and operations After the sampling process is complete, the waveform would be displayed in the screen. -
Page 15: Waveform Measurement
Kingst Virtual Instruments User Guide www.qdkingst.com 5、 Waveform measurement Besides what we could see directly from the waveform window, we could also check some items from measurement window on the right side of GUI. If you press the settings menu in the top right corner, you could see all the measurement items. -
Page 16: Analyzers
If the signal to test conforms to standard protocols like UART, I2C, SPI which are supported by Kingst VIS software(the complete protocol list is in section “Product technical specification”), besides displaying the waveform and some measurement data, the software could analyze the data to get the specific data according to protocol specifications. - Page 17 Kingst Virtual Instruments User Guide www.qdkingst.com If channels 0 and 1 are used for I2C bus signal, and we have pressed the I2C in the menu, then we will get the settings dialog of I2C analyzers as the figure below: In this dialog, we set the channel 0 to SDA and channel 1 to SCL.

Page 18: Channels Settings
Kingst Virtual Instruments User Guide www.qdkingst.com After the analyzing process, the SDA channel in the waveform window will show the analyzed data, and the analyzed results will appear in the “Analyzer decoder” window, where you can find and locate some data. The analyzed data is shown as the figure below: The data is displayed in hexadecimal by default. - Page 19 Kingst Virtual Instruments User Guide www.qdkingst.com settings window as the right figure. The channels could be enabled or closed through the check boxes. The topmost “All” check box provides a quick way to enable or disable all the channels. As is shown in the right figure, the channel settings window of LA1010 are a little complicated.

Excel could be used to locate the data, and Matlab could load bin files to analyze further. The data of Kingst VIS will be saved as kdat file, and could be opened using Kingst VIS software. - Page 22 Kingst Virtual Instruments User Guide www.qdkingst.com PWM1 is turned on, and outputs 1KHz square wave with 50% duty cycle; while PWM2 is turned off, and outputs low level. If you press the arrow-like button on the right most side, you could get the PWM settings dialog.

Kingst Virtual Instruments User Guide www.qdkingst.com V. Settings for standard protocols 1、 UART/RS232/485 For standard UART, RS232 and RS485, they have the same timing definitions of the physical layer, so they share the same analyzer, and the figure below shows the setting dialog of UART/RS232/485 analyzer. - Page 24 Kingst Virtual Instruments User Guide www.qdkingst.com signal channel is connected to the A end of the RS485 bus. ③. Connect the RS485 bus to a module that transfer RS485 to TTL, and the GND and a signal channel of the logic analyzer are connected to the GND and signal export end of the system under test.

Page 29: Vi. Faqs
1、 Driver installation fail with the device connected to computer First, Kingst VIS should have been installed before connecting the device to computer. If the software has not been installed, the OS could not find the driver, so the installation would fail. And it would be a good idea to install the software without the hardware connected to the computer. -
Page 30: Auto Update Of The Software Fails
However, because of system permission and security policy of the operating system, the auto update could fail. It this happens, the user could download the latest Kingst VIS software from our website, and after uninstalling the software, the user could install the new version. -
