Chapter 8 Protocol Decoding
Protocol analysis can be used by users to discover errors, debug hardware and
accelerate development easily, so as to guarantee quick and high-quality
accomplishment of projects. Protocol decoding is the basis of protocol analysis. Only
protocol analyses with correct protocol decoding are acceptable and only correct
protocol decoding can provide more error information. MSO1000Z/DS1000Z provides
two bus decoding modules (Decode 1 and Decode 2) to make common protocol
decoding (including Parallel (standard), RS232 (option), I2C (option) and SPI
(option)) for the input signals of the analog channels (CH1-CH4) and digital channels
(D0-D15). As the decoding functions and setting methods of Decode 1 and Decode 2
are the same, this chapter only takes Decode1 for illustration.
To get the decoding option information, please refer to the introduction in
"Appendix A: Accessories and Options". When you have ordered the decoding
option, please refer to the introduction in "Option Management" to activate
corresponding option.
