  • Page 138: Chapter 6 Useful Functions

    Chapter 6 Useful Functions 6.1 Trigger Function The trigger function is a function that triggers a special measurement process (action) triggered by a specific condition (factor) such as the occurrence of a communication error during measurement operation or reception of specified data. By controlling the timer/count, it can measure the communication response time and count the number of occurrences of specific events.
  • Page 139 External trigger input/output You can use an abnormal signal from an external device as a trigger input, or can detect the occurrence of a special factor on the communication line by this analyzer and notify it to an external measuring instrument such as an oscilloscope. TTL port The TRG IN terminal can be specified as the line state condition of the trigger factor.
  • Page 140 Trigger Factor For normal mode, select a trigger factor for Trigger0 to Trigger7. For high-speed mode, select a trigger factor from “TXD character”, “RXD character”, “error” and “TRG IN”. Other setting items cannot be set (grey out). □ Error A specific condition such as error or break are treated as a trigger condition.
  • Page 141 □ Line state (for Normal mode), TRG IN (for High-speed mode) For high-speed mode, low level of TRG IN is the trigger condition. For normal mode, the conditions of the control line and TRG IN are treated as the trigger condition. Specify the signal logic to detect with 1(High), 0(Low), and X(don't care).
  • Page 142 Trigger Action For normal mode, select any trigger actions for Trigger0 to Tigger7. For high-speed mode, select a trigger action from “Stop measurement” or “OT2 pulse output” for Trigger0 to Tigger3 (trigger action cannot be set for each trigger). □ Buzzer This setting is available only for normal mode.
  • Page 143 □ Save data T h is set t i ng is available on ly for Normal mode. The measurement data before and after the trigger factor match is automatically saved in the storage device as a trigger save f ile (TGSAVEnn.DT - nn is a serial number from 0 to 99 in the order of saving).
  • Page 144 □ Trigger control This setting is available only for normal mode. Specify the trigger to be controlled (Trigger0 to Trigger7), disable/enable, change the stat us (reverse enable/ disable from the current status) of it. A trigger that is invalid at the start of measurement can be enabled by another t r igger when it detect s a specif ic condition during the measurement (sequential trigger).

  • Page 146: Timer/Counter Function

    6.2 Timer/Counter Function The timer/counter function is used together with the trigger function and program simulation function to measure the elapsed time from a specific condition and the number of occurrences of a specific factor. Timers are used to measure the elapsed time after the occurrence of specific factor. Counters are used to count the number of times which a specific factor occurs.

  • Page 147: Timing Waveform Measurement

    Counter action 1) Cleared to 0 at the start of measurement. 2) It is incremented (+1) or cleared by the control information from the trigger function. 3) When the set value (comparison value) of counters 0 and 1 and the current value of counters 0 and 1 match, that information is passed to the trigger function.
