Page 239 Appendix G: DASdisk Utility The DASdisk utility program allows you to transfer files between the DAS and a PC. Using a PC, you can then analyze files, print files, and transfer files via modem or local area network. These instructions describe the system requirements necessary to use DASdisk, how to install DASdisk on your PC, and how to use DASdisk.
Page 240 Appendix G: DASdisk Utility The executable program is dasdisk.exe. You may want to add \dasdisk to your path variable in your autoexec.bat file to make this program executable from any directory. You could also place dasdisk.exe in another directory of executables. If you do not have a hard disk, you should make a working copy of the DASdisk floppy disk and store the original in a safe place.
Page 241 Appendix G: DASdisk Utility Change Operation When the DASdisk program executes, the first prompt asks you for the drive that contains the floppy disk. You can use the Change Operation to redesig- nate the floppy disk drive whenever desired. To redesignate the drive, select the Change Operation in the Main menu, enter the letter of the desired drive, and press the Return key.
Page 242 Appendix G: DASdisk Utility To unpack a file set, select the Unpack operation from the Main menu and perform the following steps: 1. In the PC Fileset Name field, enter the name of the file set to be unpacked; press the Return key. Pressing the Return key without specifying a file set aborts the operation.
Page 243 Appendix G: DASdisk Utility Add Operation The DASdisk program only works with file types that are in its File Type List. The Add Operation adds new types to the list. To add a file type to the list, select the Add operation in the Main menu, and perform the following steps: 1.
Page 244 Appendix G: DASdisk Utility 4. Enter Y to confirm the operation. DASdisk searches the floppy disk directory for a file that matches the Disk File Name of the specified file type. If there is a match, the file will be copied to the PC. If you do not confirm the operation or there is no matching file, the Read operation aborts.
Page 245 Appendix G: DASdisk Utility File names longer than 14 characters are truncated to 14 characters; no warning message is displayed. All alphanumeric characters and the following special characters are valid: You can only use one period in a file name, and it cannot be the first character. NOTE.
Page 246 Appendix G: DASdisk Utility Optional Command-Line You can use four optional command-line switches in the program execution Switches command line. The switch character can be either a – or a /. The switch parameter must immediately follow the switch character (no space is allowed between the switch character and the parameter).

Page 251 Glossary 92A96D The 96-channel, 32 K memory, 100 MHz data acquisition module; it is used for software performance analysis, microprocessor support, and high-speed timing analysis (up to 400 megasample asynchronous acquisition). 92A96XD The 96-channel, 128 K memory, 100 MHz data acquisition module; it is used for software performance analysis, microprocessor support, and high-speed timing analysis (up to 400 megasample asynchronous acquisition).
Page 252 Glossary 92HS8C The 92HS8 cabinet. The 92HS8C is used with a 92HS8 and 92HS8E to expand the channel-width of high-speed configurations. 92HS8E The 92HS8 Expander card. A 92HS8E can be combined with a 92HS8 and two 92HS8Cs to provide up to 32 channels of acquisition. 92LANSE The Local Area Network module that allows you to connect the mainframe to a local area network for LAN operations.
Page 253 Glossary Acquisition The capturing of data from a system under test by a logic analyzer. Data is conditionally stored in acquisition memory in preparation for formatting by the user. (Data may be clocked into the logic analyzer, yet qualified out before it can be stored in acquisition memory.) Use the trigger menu of the appropriate acquisition module to specify whether or not data is stored.
Page 254 Glossary Aliasing The condition that occurs when data from a system under test is sampled at a rate that is slower than the rate at which data changes. Aliasing results in meaningless data because the logic analyzer will miss data changes between the sample points.
Page 255 Glossary Clock Equation The Boolean combination of events needed to generate a storage clock. You can define a variety of clock inputs and link them using Boolean operators. Data will only be sampled and stored in memory when this clock equation is true.
Page 256 Glossary Cursor A marker representing a specific location on the terminal screen. There are two types of cursors: a Data Cursor and a Field Cursor. DAS/NT A networked DAS system. The DAS is controlled over a network rather than by a single terminal. DAS/XP The stand-alone DAS system.
Page 257 Glossary Edge Positioning The process of or ability to choose the relative position of the output channel transitions of the pattern generator. Edge-sensitive A trigger specification term. An event recognizer is said to be edge-sensitive when the event is only true in an acquisition cycle in which a transition occurs on the selected channels.
Page 258 Glossary Flag A bit that can be set as a marker. A flag can be used as either an event or an action in a trigger specification program. When used as an event, a flag is tested for true/false value like any other event; when used as an action, a flag can simply be set or cleared as the result of a condition being satisfied.
Page 259 Glossary Master Mainframe In any multiple-mainframe arrangement, the first mainframe in the chain must contain a controller board; it is designated the Master mainframe. All other mainframes in the chain are called Expansion mainframes. None of the expansion mainframes can contain a Controller board. Master Module Some acquisition modules are available in two versions: Master and Expander.
Page 260 Glossary Notes System On-line documentation provided with the software. This information is provided in the form of brief, quick-access notes. Two types of notes are available: Field Notes and Key Notes. Overlay A temporary display that partially covers the currently displayed menu; usually opened by selecting a function key.
Page 261 Glossary Post-fill A requirement that a logic analyzer continue to acquire data after the trigger until a predetermined number of samples has been taken. When the trigger position is programmed to occur in the center of memory, a logic analyzer will take enough data samples after the trigger to fill one half of the acquisition memory.
Page 262 Glossary Reference Memory Acquired data that has been stored in a file for use as a reference base (for instance, to compare with future acquisitions). Resolution The minimum detectable interval between data transitions on a single acquisi- tion channel or between data transitions on any two acquisition channels. Return to Zero data format.
Page 263 Glossary Signal Event When a trigger menu includes a signal from another module in an event clause, that signal is called a signal event. (See also Simple Event.) Simple Action A trigger specification term. Any action that can be performed by an acquisition module running in real time.
Page 264 Glossary Symbolic Radix A format that allows you to substitute mnemonics (names) for radix numbers when using menus. You enter your own mnemonics into the Symbol Table menu. The logic analyzer will replace radixes throughout the menu structure with these assigned values. Synchronous Acquisition An acquisition made using a clock external to the logic analyzer.
Page 265 Glossary TLA 520 Logic Analyzer A self-contained 100 MHz Logic Analyzer. The TLA 520 Logic Analyzer operates similar to a DAS mainframe with two 92C96 Data Acquisition Modules. Setups from the TLA 520 Logic Analyzer can be restored to a DAS mainframe with two or more 92C96 Data Acquisition Modules.
