2.1 General Description

The LeCroy USB Advisor™ USB2.0 Protocol Analyzer is a stand-alone unit that is
designed to be controlled and configured by a portable or desktop PC connected via its
USB port.
The Advisor uses hardware triggering to capture real-time events and hardware filtering
to preserve memory and assist in pinpointing data of interest. Recorded data is then
uploaded to the attached PC and displayed on the CATC Trace graphical user interface
as color-coded packets that can be searched for specific data, errors or other desired
conditions.
The Advisor USB2.0 Bus & Protocol Analyzer is the ideal USB tool used in conjunction
with any Microsoft
Windows Vista 64 desktop or portable PC in a USB development lab environment.
Note: Support for Windows 2000 will end on January 1, 2008.
The Advisor Analyzer supports the Universal Serial Bus, version 2.0.
Please refer to the Universal Serial Bus Specification, version 2.0 for details on the
protocol. The USB specification is available from the USB Implementers Forum (USB-IF)
