Teledyne LeCroy Scenario Libraries
232 Sierra M122 SAS/SATA Protocol Analyzer User Manual
As with Global Rules, the menu‐driven interface guides you in building a sequence. Some
of the prompts are different, however, because you now are encapsulating groups of
events and actions as distinct states. Recall that a state is a combination of events and
actions at a specific point in time. If the event or combined event defined by a state
occurs, the corresponding action or set of actions follows.

InFusion hardware provides the capacity to have up to two sequences co‐existing in a
scenario in addition to the Global Rules. Recall that both the Global Rules and any
sequences are active at all times. Each is a separate “state machine,” having the behavior
of a particular test state at any point in time. Because the Global Rules has the capacity
for only one state, you can view it as a “degenerative state machine.”
4.5 Scenario Libraries
You can create any number of scenarios, which you then can archive on your PC hard
drive. You also can download up to ten scenarios to each InFusion device for test
execution. You can think of the libraries as windows that hold scenarios.
Recall that each library is a separate *.infdb file.
4.5.1 Main Library
When you launch the InFusion application, it opens a window called the Main Library.
The main library is the default workspace for creating and storing new scenarios. The
main library corresponds with the following file in the InFusion folder on the PC
hard drive:
default.infdb
