Troubleshooting the LAN Connection

Troubleshooting the Initial Connection

Getting the logic analyzer to work with your network often requires

detailed knowledge of your local network software. This section

attempts to help you with some common problems, but because of the

wide variety of network software available it cannot cover all problems

you may encounter.

The LAN interface does not need or include any utilities or proprietary

driver software. The logic analyzer LAN interface was designed to

operate with common network utilities and drivers.

Either a hardware problem or a software problem can prevent the logic

analyzer's remote file server from communicating over the LAN.

Single server/single client network (point-to-point)

You can connect the logic analyzer to a single server/single client network. In

this configuration, the client is running an NFS application program. If you

have difficulties, check the troubleshooting procedures included with the

documentation for both the NFS application program and the communications

controller first. If the NFS application program is running in an MS Windows

environment, then also check the MS Windows documentation.

Timeout errors

Error messages such as "Device Timeout," "File Timeout," "Operation

Timeout," or other similar messages from workstations or PCs indicate

timeout problems with the computer. To increase your timeout period,

refer to your computer documentation for instructions.
