File Management
Being able to transfer data to a host computer, such as a PC or UNIX
workstation, can enhance the logic analyzer in many ways. You can use
the host to store configuration files or measurement results for later
review. You can save screen images from the logic analyzer in bitmap
files to include in reports developed using word processors or desktop
publishing tools. Or, you can develop programs on the PC that
manipulate measurement results to satisfy your problem-solving needs.
This chapter shows you how to save the different types of information.
The examples store files on the flexible disk drive, but you can move
the same files to your host computer using a network interface. The HP
1660/70-series of logic analyzers have HP-IB and RS-232-C capabilities,
and an ethernet interface. If you need help using the LAN interface, see
the LAN section of this book on page 494.
You can also use a host computer to send the logic analyzer complex
command sequences allowing you to automate your measurement
tasks. If you want to program the analyzer using a host computer, see
the HP 1660E/ES/EP or the HP 1670E-Series Logic Analyzers
Programmer's Guide.
