3.4 Cascading with CATC SYNC Expansion Card
You can cascade two Analyzers, if they both have a CATC SYNC port:
After Analyzers are connected, recording will start simultaneously and triggers will occur
simultaneously, with synchronized timestamps.
You must select both Analyzers in the Device List dialog
(see "Analyzer Devices" on page 57).
Important: When you are NOT doing cascaded recording, you must UNPLUG the cable!
If you do not unplug, the electrical signal prevents recording on all Analyzers.
Note: In this software version, cascaded recording only works if you use two Voyagers
OR two Advisor T3s. You cannot use one of each. Also, you must enable 3.0
Auto-Detect/Termination mode. Manual control does not work.
