1.3.1 General Description
The Analyzer connects to a portable or desktop host machine through its USB port. The
host machine configures and controls the Analyzer. The “CATC Trace™” user interface is
an industry standard for documenting the performance of high‐speed serial protocols.
The USB protocol Analyzer provides traffic capture and analysis. Hardware triggering
allows capture of real‐time events. Hardware filtering allows filtering different packet
types in or out of the recording. Filtering also allows you to preserve recording memory,
for extended recording time.
The trace viewer application displays recorded data in colored graphics. The application
has advanced search and viewing capabilities that allow you to quickly locate specific
data, errors, and other conditions.
The system functions with any host machine having the Microsoft

XP,
Windows 8, or Windows 7 (32 or 64) operating system and a functional USB interface.
