Buffer Size and Segments
The Analyzer Settings tab has the Recording Buffer pane where you can set Number of
Segments and the Segment Size. The defaults are one segment of 25MB. The total size
used is automatically displayed for you. Setting multiple segments will allow to trigger on
the first occurrence of the trigger condition, fill up the first segment, then automatically
re‐arm the trigger and repeat the remaining number of segments specified. You can use
the slider button or click the up or down arrow to change memory usage for recording
trace data. (Minimum size of memory is 1MB. Maximum size of memory is dependent on
the hardware.) (See
Figure 2.1 on page 32
.) Enter an integer Num. of Segment, from 1 to
32, then enter an integer Segment Size in kilobytes, up to the memory size in megabytes
divided by the number of segments. The default is 1.
The New Project dialog opens with default settings to capture Everything on the bus and
to Trigger On on Snapshot. (The analyzer captures everything immediately without
triggering on anything in particular.)
